We have several awesome volunteer opportunities this year to join our amazing committees. The need is vast and your help, no matter how big or small, is important! If you are a idea creator and a doer, this is for you. We typically will meet monthly, but in some cases, we mostly work from email, talking, or meeting up. Our list of committees within the NW (Washington and Oregon are our most involved areas, with Idaho, Alaska, and Montana needing some love) include: Corporate Engagement - find people to connect people to companies in our backyards to support us! Marketing & Awareness - create content, post on social media, send emails, meet new people! Healthcare Committee - help connect with our healthcare community. Volunteer Engagement - help us recruit, onboard, and mentor our volunteers! Stewardship - help find and develop deep, personal relationships with those who donate graciously We need help in all areas - connections, phone calls, data entry, social marketing creation, website research, managing invites, helping with events, etc. There is no shortage all within the NW. If you are in Alaska, Idaho or Montana - we really need your help as we are mostly concentrated in the Seattle area and extend to Portland.

The NW Chapter for the CCF is doing some awesome things to help those with IBD. From children to adults, they are making a difference in people’s lives by providing support, resources, and community!

I love that this Foundation's mission supports both important research to find a cure to IBD and resources/support for patients living with this disease. I learned about the foundation when my daughter was diagnosed and found their support and information really helpful when making treatment decisions. Now that she is more stable I have enjoyed being able to give back by volunteering!
