2023 West Coast
Walk for Sjögren's

For all of CA, ID, NV, OR & WA

 

Saturday, October 21, 2023
10:00 am PT

Show Your Community How You Can Be Stronger Than Sjögren's.

If you register, then raise funds or self-donate $50 on your page by Wednesday, October 11th, you will receive a Walk for Sjögren's T-Shirt in time for you to wear on Walk Day!

 
Why Virtual Walk?
 
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 October 21st, 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.
 
How do I get started?
 

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 October 11th, 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, October 21st, join us at 10am PT 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 Rancho Cucamonga, CA area, who would like to meetup in-person with Rayna Keen’s Walk Team and Susan Barajas for a no frills gathering with other Sjögren's friends, CLICK HERE for more information. This is a LIVE walk meetup the day of the walk at 11:30am and not an official Sjögren's Foundation event but a great opportunity to get together with other Sjögren's patients and friends and walk together after the Zoom Opening Ceremony! 


If you register, then raise funds or self-donate $50 by October 11th 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.
