In the Fall of 2020, I was diagnosed with Sarcoidosis. It's been a rocky year but I have so much support and encouragement from my family and friends. I want also want to give back and support an organization that has helped me as well.

To help celebrate the end of another year, this holiday season I am participating in the Foundation for Sarcoidosis Research’s (FSR) Gratitude and Giving campaign to help spread kindness and positivity all over the world. Through this campaign, I will be practicing gratitude through sharing what I am grateful for and giving back as a way to show appreciation for these special things in my life.

During the Gratitude and Giving campaign, I will be writing and sharing five things I am grateful for on the FSR Gratitude Tree and pledging to raise or donate $10.00 for everything I express gratitude to. I believe it is important to give back in the ways that we can and to support those living with and affected by sarcoidosis. I need your help to raise $500 to help FSR meet their goal of $25,000 to support research efforts and patient programming initiatives next year!

By supporting the Gratitude and Giving campaign, you will be contributing to the progress made towards FSR’s research agenda, groundbreaking sarcoidosis research projects, as well as FSR’s comprehensive Patient Education and Resource Programs. The sarcoidosis community and I greatly appreciate your generosity and support!

I hope you will join me this month and help achieve our goals by:

1. Making a donation to my fundraising page.
2. Join the campaign and complete your own Gratitude Tree to share with your friends and family to pass along the message of kindness and gratitude this season.
3. Share this page link with your friends and family on social media and invite them to join to practice gratitude.

Together, we can make the world a better place!

Thank you!
