Awareness Week Is Here
In honor of Crohn’s & Colitis Awareness Week, you can help advance IBD research by making a gift. A generous donor has offered to match all gifts up to a total of $1,000,000* through December 31 , which will be directed to support the Foundation’s unique Litwin IBD Pioneers program. This program supports researchers with early-stage, novel ideas that have strong potential to make a positive impact on patients’ health.
Donate now and your gift will be matched for double the impact. Plus, when you donate $50 or more now through the end of Awareness Week (December 7), you'll receive a t-shirt** allowing you to show your support for making #IBDvisible all year long!
*Matching gift offer valid up to a total of $1,000,000 through midnight PT on December 31, 2023. Offer not valid on individual gifts of $10,000 or more.
**While supplies last. T-shirts for donations of $50+ will be shipped within 6-8 weeks.

Camp Oasis is conducting a survey to further our commitment
to diversity and inclusion. We seek a variety of perspectives from individuals representing communities of color, regardless of your participation in our program. The goal is to learn about any culturally relevant barriers, challenges, benefits, or drivers to attending camp
and identify opportunities to increase diversity of participants in the program. Please take 5 minutes to complete our survey.
