Thank you for again visiting my fundraising web page for the 17th Annual Walk-Along for Lupus! This is my 4rth walk and I am hoping that I will be able to exceed my past fundraising efforts! 

As many of my friends and family know, Lupus has not only affected me, but my children's lives as well. I am hoping that my efforts will help to fund the research necessary to find a cure for Lupus, if not in my lifetime, hopefully in my children's lives. I pray that they do not suffer with this the way that I have.

The Lupus Alliance of America LIQ`s Affiliate`s, Walk-Along for lupus is the first and longest running, Lupus walk On Long Island, and the only Lupus Walk on Long Island that raises funds both for research as well as to help support the individual living with lupus by providing financial, supportive, and educational programs.
