Our Team Fundraising Page
Frankie Smillie passed away in 2018 after a brief and courageous battle with CJD. Currently this devastating disease has no treatment or cure. The goal of this event is to raise money and awareness. Funds will go toward the CJD Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization, to provide family support, medical education and research programs.
If you're in a position to donate, thank you so much in advance! Any amount helps, and all donations will go toward our team fundraising goal. If you're not able to donate, no problem! A major goal of this event is to raise awareness, so we'd love your help in spreading the word and showcasing your support during the event.
