Help Julie raise money

For participating in Tamarack Ottawa Virtual Race Weekend 2021

My Story…

I was diagnosed with JRA when I was only 18 months old. I am running so that any youth with arthritis know they are not alone and that they have a community to support them!

Description

Did you know that 24,000 youth in Canada are affected by juvenile arthritis (JA) and other rheumatic diseases? 

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!
