Team Emily Casey Fundraising Page

In Loving Memory of Emily Jayne Casey

In February of 2024 we lost Emily Casey  to a rare degenerative brain disorder called Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD). CJD currently has no treatment or cure. This fall we will be walking in her honor and memory at Strides for CJD.  We appreciate your donation.  

All proceeds go to the CJD foundation to provide family support, medical education and research programs.

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.
