**UPDATE: Thanks to the generosity of those who donated, MDShooters raised $500 in donations. Thank you very much!**
A friend of mine needs some help reaching her goal of raising money for a fundraiser for Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis research. She is running in the Virginia Wine Country Half Marathon in order to raise funds for The Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of America.
Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis are autoimmune deficiency diseases of the digestive tract that affect 1.4 million Americans. Symptoms vary in each patient but can be very painful and very often lead to life altering surgery. Currently there are no cures for these diseases.
This is not any kind of "official" MDShooters sponsorship or fund drive, just me using my connections to try and help a friend raise funds to help a lot of sick people find a cure for a terrible affliction. That said, any funds raised will be donated on behalf of Maryland Shooters so it is another good way to show that we are involved in our community in ways other than just firearm related stuff.
If you are interested in pitching in any amount is appreciated. It all adds up. I will be collecting funds for a few days and then will present any money raised on behalf of our group.
Thanks for you help!
