Join Team Florida for Virtual Strides for CJD

This year, we’re excited to launch the **Virtual Strides for CJD** event, allowing participants to walk in their neighborhoods with friends and family while honoring our loved ones affected by Creutzfeldt Jakob Disease (CJD).

Event Details:
Dates: Walk anytime on October 4th, 5th, 11th, or 12th.
Location: Your Neighborhood or Favorite Place to Walk

New for this year, friends and family who may not be near a Strides for CJD location can easily join virtually. Simply register, create a fundraising team, and invite others to participate and donate. Share your personal or team fundraising pages via email and social media to spread the word!

Remember, everyone who registers by Wednesday, August 20th at 11:59 PM Eastern Time will receive a participant t-shirt.

Share photos of your walk using the hashtags #Strides4CJD, #CureCJD, #CurePrionDisease, and #CJDFoundation in October to help raise awareness.

Virtual fundraising teams have been vital to the success of Strides for CJD, making a significant impact in raising awareness and funds for the CJD Foundation. Whether walking alone or with a small group, every step counts!

Join us in making a difference for a brighter future!
