Hello! I'm Fran Cramblitt and I’m raising funds for the "Walk to End Lupus Now". I'm supporting the walk through various fundraisers in my area of Raleigh, NC.
When: October 21, 2023 at 10:00 AM
1201 Elizabeth Ave (Central Piedmont Community College) Charlotte, NC
Living with Lupus means having to adapt and adjust to things constantly changing – so that is just what we have been doing. This year, we are BACK TOGETHER and walking IN PERSON on October 21st in Charlotte, NC!
Imagine a day when doctors can say, “There is a cure for lupus.” Until that day though, there is work to be done. That’s why I’m taking action in the fight against lupus. Join me as I participate in Lupus Foundation of America’s Walk to End Lupus Now™ in North, Carolina, to help improve the quality of life for all people affected by lupus? A generous contribution of $25 or $55 can make a definite impact. What’s more, if your employer offers a Matching Gift Program to employees, you may be able to double your contribution with just a little bit of paperwork. Trust me, it’s worth the effort!
I was diagnosed with Lupus at age 45. Now, for over 17 years, it has ruled my life. It has damaged my kidneys, and cold weather affects me. I often have a hard time functioning on a daily basis. I fatigue easily, so it keeps me from enjoying daily activites and a lot of fun activities. The Lupus medications can be harsh with multiple side effects.
Please help me reach my Fundraising goal, so we can get closer to a cure for Lupus. ==
I'm planning a few evening Fundraiser Events: The first one is September 27th, at Rosati's, for my female Scrapbooking friends. Dinner proceeds will go towards the fundraiser, and I will have over a dozen baskets of items to bid on for a silent auction. The Silent Auction takes place that evening and winners will be awarded at the end of the night.
A special dinner event will take place on October 4th, also at Rosati's. Everyone who has lunch or dinner that day, will be contributing. A percentage of every meal will be donated to my fundraiser. A special code will be required. (More details to come later!) Come out and enjoy the evening!
The last evening Fundraiser will be on October 18th. A fun night of Dueling Pianos and a Comedy Show located at Back then Bar and Grill, in Cary at MacGregor Village. Enjoy dinner and drinks before the show. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to my Lupus Fundraiser. (More details will be shared as the dates get closer!)
I want everyone to have FUN! Invite your family and friends to these impactful events, help us raise funds for this important cause!
Together, we can solve the cruel mystery of lupus. ***Thank you for your generosity!
