Join Us for Walk Strong to Cure JM
![](../images/friendraiser_uploads/1092.1810073311.custom.jpeg)
Please join TEAM GRACE on Saturday, September 21st , 9:00AM at Rio Washingtonian Center Lakeside, Gaithersburg, MD!
Our family is participating in Walk Strong to Cure JM. All proceeds benefit Cure JM Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to finding a cure for Juvenile Myositis, a life-threatening disease which causes the body’s own immune system to attack healthy cells and tissues. It can affect virtually any system of the body, the heart, lungs, skin, muscles, and more.
We know how this disease and its complications can be life-threatening. An 8-day stay in the ICU this past April is a fresh memory.... and a reminder...
....there is no cure....YET!
But with support from friends and family like you, we’re getting closer to better treatments and a cure.
With this continued great support from families and friends we were able to fund research at 20 prestigious research institutions, helping advance JM research at an unprecedented pace!
Your gift now will keep that momentum going. Every donation goes straight to Cure JM, and since inception over 90% of all funds raised go directly to research.
Join the team and fight against JM/JDM today!
