Howdy! 10 years ago CJD slammed into our lives and God mericifully called my Daddy home after a month long battle in  the hospital. We are so thankful for his team at Methodist Hospital in Houston, the CJD Foundation and Vitas in The Woodlands for the wonderful care and guidance they gave our family. This year we'd love to help raise $1000 to help find a cure for CJD and if we do, my Daddy's name will be on the offical Strides for CJD shirt. We appreciate all your help and consideration.

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.
