Take Steps
Take Steps is more than just a walk. It is a community that brings together patients, caregivers, and friends in a celebration that will leave you feeling empowered and inspired. When you fundraise through Take Steps, you are directly impacting treatment, research, and quality of life programs for patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

Take Steps is our largest fundraising event. To date, Take Steps has brought together 360,000 people and raised almost $100 million to impact vital treatment, research, and quality of life programs for patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
On October 18 many of our fall walks will be going virtual! TAKE STEPS + VIRTUAL is a safe and fun way for us to connect nationwide—and even globally. Join us as a walker, team member, or supporter for a virtual event filled with inspiring patient stories, supporter recognition, entertainment, and more.
