VIRTUAL Team Cassie + Friends 2025

Are you ready to move for kids and families living with juvenile arthritis and other rheumatic diseases?

From a single dad running in 2007 to a nationwide movement powered by families, friends, and supporters like you, Team Cassie + Friends has become a beacon of hope and action for kids across Canada.

This year, we’re asking families to join us by doing “Virtually Anything”, where families, individuals, and community champions can take part in virtually any type of movement challenge to raise awareness, funds, and support for children living with juvenile arthritis and other rheumatic diseases.

Whether it’s hosting a yoga class, walking 24,000 steps to represent the 24,000 kids affected by juvenile arthritis in Canada, or organizing your own creative fundraiser, you can join us to inspire action across the country for childhood rheumatic diseases.

You can:
- Host a lemonade stand like Jake.
- Run a bottle drive like Jaylene.
- Organize a yard sale/bake sale like Charlotte and Riley.
- Partner with a local restaurant for "Celebrity Server" like Harley.

Move at your own pace, get creative, from wherever you are, while making a real difference for families who need it most. Together, we can take bold steps toward a future with better care, treatments, and hope for every child impacted by these conditions.

Friends/families who join us by creating a fundraising page will receive:

- a Team Cassie + Friends Technical running shirt
- a reimbursement of your registration fee if fundraising over $200
- an entry to win fabulous prizes
