Hey Neighbours!

Did you know that kids get arthritis too?

Porte Communities (33 E 8th Ave) and our charity partner, Cassie + Friends, would like to invite you to be a part of our Virtual Run/Walk Finish Line celebration on Friday, June 25th in support of kids living with arthritis. The Team at Porte Communities be effortlessly gliding and/or desperately stumbling into Jonathon Rogers Park around 12:00pm as we complete our run to raise awareness and funds for Juvenile Arthritis research. We invite you to meet us at the finish line by completing your own neighborhood run/walk, and/or by making a donation to get your very own celebratory cupcake and bubbly beverage. 100% of proceeds go towards juvenile arthritis research. We hope to see you there!

Description

Together we're running towards a pain-free future for kids living with juvenile arthritis and other rheumatic diseases. Please show your support by making a donation to our fundraising team or by letting others know that kids get arthritis too! 

In 2021, we're determined to make our BIGGEST IMPACT yet. We hope you'll run with us to:

  • Bring even more awareness of juvenile arthritis and other rheumatic conditions into the public eye. No child should suffer years before their diagnosis and no youth should have to live alone and isolated with their condition.
  • Set-up much needed support funds/equipment cupboards in clinics across Canada. The burden on families is greater than ever before - and we want to be there for those who need us most.
  • Keep making sure JA research is a PRIORITY! We never lose sight of our goals to find safer and more effective treatments for kids and one day - a cure!
