My Personal Fundraising Page

It's been a year and a half since we lost Richard to CJD. In that time I've become determined to learn all I can about this disease and support the work of the CJD Foundation as it supports families, funds research grants, and advocates with lawmakers. I've donated to the Foundation, participated in support groups they offer, and co-facilitated a zoom bereavement group. In July I'll attend the family conference in DC and as you know participate in the Denver Strides for CJD walk in September. I'm making a quilt for the silent auction at that event as well. If you could please sponsor me for the walk with a donation of any size I'd be so grateful. Thank you!

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.
