Gina's Footprints.. We walk for a cure

Hello my friends! It is that time of year again. It is that time of year when I ask you to remember Gina and her fight with CJD. It is a horrific disease that robbed her of the beautiful life that she lived. It stripped us of her physical presence that brought joy to so many of us. She was my cousin, my sister, my best friend. I walk in honor of her spirit. She lived to help others whenever she could. This is my way of saying thank you to her.  You can find out more about this disease and raise funds for its cure by joining the CJD foundation.  Donations are never too small and I truly mean that. Our goal is to prevent this from happening to anyone else's family in the future.  You are also welcome to join our team and walk with us in Morris Plains, NJ on October 5, 2024. As a result of her hope, love, and determination, Gina's life was an inspiration to us all. Let's give her that back by supporting this cause. We are the footprints of her life. Thank you so much!

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.
