- A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
Our annual Staten Island Take Steps for Crohn's & Colitis fundraising walk is on Saturday, May 30th, at Clove Lakes Park and we would like to provide entertainment for our walkers, both children and adults. This entertainment can include anything from clowns (with balloon animals) to magicians and facepainters. If you are able to offer an in-kind donation of your time, we'd greatly appreciate your support!
Take Steps is a nationwide fundraising event that raises awareness for the more than 1.6 million American adults and 800,000 children affected by digestive diseases like Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, debilitating digestive diseases that are also known as inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD).
We understand that this is a big ask, so in return for your services we’d be happy to promote you with day of event promotions for e.g.: Facebook postings, logo on our program and a thank you from our emcee.
If you would like to find out more about our event please go to www.cctakesteps.org/statenisland, where you can also read about our honored heroes, Dr. Jeffrey Abergel and Marcus Grant.
We really appreciate your consideration to contribute to our event and if you have any questions please don’t hesitate to reach out to Kim Pang, our Take Steps Walk Coordinator, at 646-388-9285 or kpang@ccfa.org.
