The Sjögren's Foundation is committed to the health and safety of our patients, their families and our volunteers, therefore, we are continuing to have a virtual event. (This platform also allows us to expand our reach of support and awareness.)

 

Even in the face of our challenging times, the fight to conquer Sjögren's continues and the importance of coming together as a virtual community is even more important and meaningful. You can still help raise Sjögren's awareness and crucial funds to support the Foundation’s education, support and research advances.

This means on April 1st, you choose where you want to walk whether you walk at home, on your treadmill, in your neighborhood or at your favorite park. You are welcome to meet up with friends and family.

 

 

Step 1. Register: Select the Registration button and while registering, either donate $50 or raise $50 on your page to earn your walk T-shirt. (If you do so by March 22nd, you can receive your T-shirt in time for walk day. Raise or donate more to earn more prizes and make an even greater impact.)

Step 2. Personalize: Add your story and why you walk to your online fundraising page created when you registered in Step 1.

Step 3. Raise Funds: Ask family and friends to donate. Once you reach $50, you will have earned your Walk T-Shirt! Additional prizes earned from your fundraising will be sent to you after the walk.

Step 4. Rally Others: Encourage your family and friends (your circle of strength) to participate and make a difference right where they are – even if they aren’t in the area. They can register online, raise funds and receive a T-shirt and prizes too!

Step 5. Join Us: On Saturday, April 1st, join us at 10am for our Walk for Sjögren’s Zoom Opening Ceremony with our Ask the Doctor panel, door prizes and much more! Then after the ceremony,  step off that day at 10:45am for your own walk in your neighborhood or anywhere! Be sure to take and share your pictures at #walkforsjogrens or walk@sjogrens.org. (If you share a picture, you are giving us permission to use it for future Foundation/walk promotions.)

For those near the Virginia Beach oceanfront, CLICK HERE for information about a LIVE walk meetup group the day of the walk. 
This meetup is not being run by the Sjögren's Foundation.

If you register, then raise funds or self-donate $50 by March 22nd you will receive your Walk for Sjögren’s T-shirt before Walk Day. Your other prizes earned will be sent to you after the event!

Thank you for helping us raise funds and awareness as we work together to conquer Sjögren’s and show we are stronger than Sjögren's.
