My Story…
Hi Winnipeg! Did you know 3 in 1,000 Canadian children have Juvenile Arthritis and other rheumatic conditions, and my daughter Rosalie is one of those 3?
My husband, Matt, and I will be co-hosting a 5KM fundraising run/walk at Kildonan Park on 31May2025 to raise money for Cassie & Friends, a Canadian non-profit organization for children with rheumatic disease. Registration to join us is here! https://raceroster.com/events/2025/100818/team-cassie-friends-winnipeg-2025
If you can't join us to run/walk, please consider donating. Money raised in Winnipeg goes back into the Manitoba community by providing providing aids for children at the Rheumatology clinic at HSC Children's Hospital (Buzzy bees for injection support, numbing cream, pencil grips, special backpacks, crutches etc), gas cards and grocery cards for parents/guardians who travel for treatments, as well as covering costs of specialized equipment for individuals and even travel costs for out of province care.
