Samantha, Sam, SamiLove

What mattered most to Sam? Family, friends, loyalty, & community.

Her greatest callings in life were that of mother and educator, to which she gave of herself fully and completely.

Sam made a difference in so many lives through her kindness, empathy, inclusion, compassion and love.

She dreamed big dreams and wanted others to have the opportunity to do the same.

Sam believed in helping others in any way, any chance you get. This is why we started Pay It Forward with SamiLove: to honor her spirit of generosity, and to continue her legacy.

About Strides for CJD

Strides for CJD is an annual walk/run to raise awareness of Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD), a rare neurodegenerative disease that has no treatment or cure. Through this event, anyone -- anywhere -- can pay tribute to their loved ones and raise funds for the CJD Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization.

Funds raised support our programs including:

  • Our 24/7 helpline, support groups, conference, and other family programs throughout the year.
  • Research grants to help scientists make important discoveries and bring us closer to a cure.
  • Medical education to help raise awareness and understanding of prion disease.
