Description

Thank you for participating in our 2020 Virtual Fighting Autoimmunity 5K! We are honored you chose to support our 501c3. Profits from this event will be directed to two organizations that continue the fight with Autoimmune Disease: CONQUER at UT-Southwestern, which focuses on research and further treatments for various AI diseases, and CAP, the Children's Alopecia Project which sends families with Alopecia to surf camp. Over the past five years, we have donated over $83,000 to these two organizations!

Autoimmune Disease affects more than 50 million Americans according to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and that number is rising. Researchers have identified 80-100 different autoimmune diseases and suspect at least 40 additional diseases of having an autoimmune basis. These chronic diseases affect the immune system's ability to recognize foreign cells, so it attacks normal, healthy cells (referred to as Autoimmunity). Source: American Autoimmune Related Diseases Association (AARDA)

With the recent COVID-19 Pandemic and restrictions for group activities, we felt a virtual event was the safest methodology due to the high-risk category for many of our family members/friends who suffer from Autoimmune Disease.

Thank you for helping us continue the fight!
