Friends and Family, We are excited to be walking in the Chicago Walk Strong to Cure JM™ on June 23rd at the Hyatt Lodge at McDonald's Campust in Oak Brook, IL. Leading up to the walk, Cure JM families, friends, and supporters are coming together to raise $150,000 for much-needed Juvenile Myositis research!
As you know, «Child_Name» battles Juvenile Myositis (JM), a life-threatening disease which causes the body's own immune system to attack healthy cells and tissues. Juvenile Myositis can affect virtually any system of the body, the heart, lungs, skin, muscles, and more. There are currently no FDA-approved treatments and no cure….YET!
But that's where you come in!
Prefer a check? No problem! Checks can be made out to "Cure JM" and mailed to Cure JM, 836 Lynwood Drive, Encinitas, CA 92024. Please put "Walk Strong Chicago/«Team_Name»" in the memo. Thank you so, so much for your support.
Thanks to friends and family like you, Cure JM has made extraordinary progress in drug-development and genetic discovery. But, the reality is that we simply must move faster and in more areas of research than ever before and we need your support.
Every donation goes straight to Cure JM, and over 90% of all funds raised go directly to research. Can we count on you to help today?
