Know anyone with a food allergy? Watcha doing on September 20? How about joining Team Sure Foods Living on the Walk for Food Allergy in San Francisco? September is usually a beautiful time of year in San Francisco, so come on out to Golden Gate Park and show your support for food allergy research. You don’t have to have food allergies to participate and there is no fee to walk (but hopefully you will donate too!). If you can’t walk, please donate on behalf of my team.

Living with food allergies is an every-day challenge. There is currently no cure for food allergies, but The Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Network (FAAN) is working to change that. Their national fundraising event, Walk for Food Allergy: Moving Toward A Cure^™ . consists of walks in many different cities from August to December to raise awareness about food allergies and sponsor education and research. I for one do believe that a treatment can be found for people with food allergies, and I have hope that it will be in my daughter’s lifetime.

I hope to walk with you on September 20! To join my team, click here.
