Walk with Us to Cure Lupus is the Lupus Research Alliance’s signature national fundraising program devoted to finding a cure for lupus. All are welcome. No limits. No tickets required. Registration is recommended. This event will include inspiring speakers, light grab & go refreshments during the walk, a t-shirt contest, and a variety of activity booths. Free to participate in this event, but donations are appreciated. 100% of all donations go directly to lupus research programs. Lupus is a chronic and complex autoimmune disease that affects millions of people worldwide. More than 90 percent of people with lupus are women, and lupus disproportionately affects women of color. In lupus, the immune system, which is designed to protect against infection, creates antibodies that can attack any part of the body including the kidneys, brain, heart, lungs, blood, skin, and joints. Registration opens at 9 a.m. PDT / Start time: 10 a.m. PDT For more information on the event visit https://give.lupusresearch.org/event/2024-san-diego-walk-with-us-to-cure-lupus/e587905 Contact Joanne Golombos at 732-610-2267 or jgolombos@lupusresearch.org Lupus Research Alliance on Instagram and Facebook
