Literally one step at a time
The Gutsy Walk

On Sunday, June 2nd hundreds (if not thousands) of Canadians in over 60 locations will be participating in a community fundraising event, "The Gusty Walk", to support the fight against these two forms of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD).

An autoimmune disease, Crohn's and Colitis effect over 270,000 Canadians causing abdominal pain, internal bleeding, and other symptoms that invade and disrupt their lives.

The Gusty Walk has raised over $35 million for research and patient programs over the last 23 years thanks to generous donations, sponsors, and participants. With only 10 days until the walk, it's the perfect time to sign up or make a donation.
