Help Marian raise money

For participating in 2021 Scotiabank Vancouver Half-Marathon & 5K

My Story…

Seven years ago I was diagnosed with celiac disease. It solved a lot of questions with regard to health issues I have experienced most of my life. Migraines, skin rashes, fatigue, osteoporosis, digestive discomfort and joint pain have all improved or disappeared with a gluten free diet. The most difficult part of my life now is participating in social activities that either involve food or require, at some point during the day, eating away from home. I hope to soon see improvements to laws governing labelling and handling of food products and progressive policies adopted by hospitality and institutional food providers (think restaurants, hotels, airports, schools and universities, hospitals and old age care facilities). Please help the CCA create a safe, healthy, inclusive community for everyone.

Donate to help Marian raise money for 2021 Scotiabank Vancouver Half-Marathon & 5K’s fundraising campaign.
