Arthritis is the number one cause of disability in America. People with arthritis are warriors, boldly facing the pain, limitations and challenges the disease causes. Challenges like getting properly diagnosed, multiple doctor’s visits and treatments, a maze of insurance procedures, missing school or work, being unable to perform normal, everyday tasks or enjoy favorite hobbies and activities. I ride to cure arthritis to improve the lives of the 60 million Americans living with the disease. I’m raising funds for resources and research, to find better treatments and a cure. With your help we were able to donate $3,560 in 2023. Please consider donating this year to help me reach my fundraising goal of $4,000 and help the Arthritis Foundation conquer arthritis once and for all.
