Welcome to team San Diego Strong Sjogren's Fundraising Page
Please join me in my efforts to raise funds for the Sjögren's Foundation! This is a very personal disease for me as I have suffered from the life long impact of this disease for over 30 years. Sjogren's is a systemic autoimmune disease that affects the entire body including extensive dryness as well as profound fatigue, chronic pain, major organ involvement, central nervous system involvement and puts us all at higher risk of lymphoma.
It affects sufferers by changing their life forever. The impact in lifestyle of individual sufferers varies from sometimes wreaking havoc in their body but also taking an emotional toll as the disease takes away the ability to lead a normal life. Often no longer able to work fulltime due to the disease, the lifelong financial impact can be quite severe as well.
Sjögren’s is the second most common autoimmune rheumatic disease affecting as many as FOUR million Americans, with an estimated 2.5 million patients currently undiagnosed.
I invite you to support me in raising money for the Sjogren's Foundation. Their mission is to bring about more support, diagnosis, education and research for the Sjogren's Disease community.
TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE AND IMPACT THE FUTURE OF SJOGREN'S DISEASE.
Please support me in helping to reach this goal by making a donation today. Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure and is the most efficient way to support my fundraising efforts!
Thank you in advance for your support!
