My Personal Fundraising Page
Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD) is a rare neurodegenerative disease that has no treatment or cure. The incidence of CJD is approximately one and a half to two people per million per population per year. In the United States this translates to approximately 550- 600 new cases per year. I am participating in this walk in memory of Jeff Chapman, my friend's husband, and to bring awareness to and raise research funds for CJD. All money raised benefits the CJD Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization, to provide family support, medical education, and research programs.
