Our story…

Thank you for helping to spring new HOPE for kids with Juvenile Arthritis!

We're excited to have you join us for a very special hour of music and storytelling on Friday June 4th at 7pm PST/10pm EST. With your donation of $20 or more, you will receive an exclusive link on June 4th to enjoy this one-of-a-kind event streamed LIVE right into your own home!

Proceeds from this Singer-Songwriter Performance will help Fund Urgent Research supporting the Hope of a Pain-Free Future for Kids diagnosed with Juvenile Arthritis and Other rheumatic diseases. 


More Info:

Years of playing musical instruments can cause painful joints and tendons in the hands of our favourite musicians, but for every 3 in 1000 kids in Canada, Juvenile Arthritis can strike at any time. For many children, that means painful injections, lifelong treatment and missing out on school, sports and activities they love. 

To help bring new hope to affected children and their families, Cassie + Friends invites you to join us for a special streamed event featuring an evening of music and storytelling with award winning, multi-genre Songwriters and Recording Artists. Over the course of the hour, they will share the stage, entertaining online viewers with tales of the creative journey that inspired their hit songs which they perform throughout the show.

Thank you for supporting kids and helping us transform lives! We hope you will enjoy this special event and encourage you to donate as generously as possible!

Special thanks to 97southsongsessions.com!

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!
