On behalf of our President & CEO @MinaMawani, thank you! Thank you for taking part in this year’s milestone 25th anniversary #GutsyWalk, whether it was through ...raising awareness, raising funds, or both your support means so much to us. For 25 years, we’ve been walking to show to those living with #Crohn’s disease or ulcerative #colitis that they are not alone. While August 23rd has come and gone, the need to fund life-saving research hasn’t. We’re still walking. It’s not too late to make a difference as fundraising continues until September 30th. The more funds we are able to raise by the end of the month, the more research projects we are able to support. Research is critical to improving lives, advancing treatments and ultimately finding the cures. gutsywalk.ca
