an old friend raises money for a very worthy cause.

from Chris Spooner

Hey All,


I was diagnosed with Crohn’s Disease almost 14 years ago to the month. My better half Melissa has been actively involved with the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation of America(CCFA) for the past 3 years as National Run Coach for the team challenge ½ marathon prog ram and this year she has involved me. So I'm training for and will race the ½ marathon in Vegas on December 6th. This is our first time involved with fundraising and, as you can appreciate, the cause holds a special place in our heart. Currently there is no cure or even a real understanding as to what causes Crohn’s or Colitis and so it is through fundraising that we hope we can shed some light on these diseases and perhaps make it easier for those dealing with disease.

Please visit my fundraising page and if you have the chance to donate we would be very grateful – our goal is to raise $5,000.00... any contribution make a big difference in finding a cure for Crohn’s and Colitis. If you know of someone else who you feel would like to donate please pass on the link that you will find below – as every little bit helps –
