My annual fundraising campaign for Lupus Ontario is underway. Over the past 16 years, family, friends, neighbours and colleagues have contributed over $248,000.
Why am I fundraising?
My daughter was diagnosed with lupus in 1996, and we have personally experienced the challenges of this complicated disease.
How does your donation help improve the lives of people living with lupus?
100% of the funds we raise are being directed towards the $65,000 Lupus Ontario Geoff Carr Fellowship. This Fellowship is offered annually to a qualified doctor to work under supervision at an accredited Lupus Clinic in Ontario.
The Fellowship also provides the recipient opportunities to conduct research in either adult or paediatric lupus, to gain additional in-depth knowledge of diagnosis and treatment options for the disease, and to provide patient care and education.
