Cure Crew Program
Cure Crew members are part of a growing “team” of volunteers who make a difference. They have fun, raise awareness and raise funds for research. The Cure Crew program enables scleroderma patients, their families and friends to educate others in their communities about this disease and raise money to help us find a cure.
Cure Crew members are motivated and dedicated. They typically know someone with scleroderma, or have the disease themselves. Often, they had never heard of scleroderma before their lives were directly impacted by it.
The types of events and activities organized by Cure Crew volunteers are varied, both big and small.
The Scleroderma Research Foundation can provide support to help make your activity a success. We can supply literature about the disease and the Foundation so that you are better able to communicate the importance of advancing medical research toward a cure for this potentially life-threatening illness. The SRF can also provide you with an educational video, event ideas and general guidance.
The Cure Crew members are part of a vital grassroots program to raise funds and national awareness of scleroderma. Participating members make a real difference in the lives of people living with scleroderma and their loved ones—as well as honoring those who have passed away from complications caused by the disease. At the very heart of the program are people across America doing what they enjoy and helping to raise funds and awareness at the same time.
Become a Cure Crew member today. Whether you choose to launch an awareness-building campaign or organize a fundraising event, you are making a huge difference to the hundreds of thousands of people living with scleroderma.
Many fundraising events will serve a double purpose, raising awareness as well as critical research dollars. From bowling tournaments to letter campaigns, garage sales to gala dinners, Cure Crew members across the country are bringing people together and raising money to help scleroderma patients live longer, fuller lives.
Every seed of awareness that gets planted has the potential to educate another person about scleroderma and inspire them to lend their support in funding the quest for a cure.
