Team Challenge: Your Ticket to Sold-out Destination Races!

Team Challenge is CCFA's endurance training and fundraising program. Through Team Challenge, you can run or walk 13.1 miles or train for a triathlon or cycling event while helping to find cures for IBD. This summer, Team Challenge is the ONLY way to participate in two sold-out destination races: the Virginia Wine Country Half Marathon and the Napa-to-Sonoma Half Marathon. If you're in the mood for a beach, we're also going to the Kona Half Marathon this summer! Pick your race and join the Team today!

Spring cleaning -- for your health!

Spring has sprung! While now is the time for spring cleaning and taking out your summer clothes, it's just as important to review your overall health. When making appointments for GI visits, don't forget to get in touch with your primary physician and dentist about other important issues including oral health, vaccinations, and screenings. Download our fact sheet on general health maintenance, or contact the Information Resource Center to have it sent to you at 888-694-8872, or info@ccfa.org.

Get Your Guts in Gear!

Get Your Guts in Gear is a two-day fundraising bike ride in which a portion of the proceeds benefit CCFA. There are two rides to choose from: one in the Midwest and one in the Hudson Valley. Learn more.

CCFA Partners Gives Patients a Chance to Share

CCFA is looking for 10,000 or more IBD patients to share how IBD has impacted their lives through CCFA Partners, our newly-launched groundbreaking online research and education program. By completing a short, confidential survey about their current quality of life and providing occasional updates on their health, participants can shape researchers' understanding of IBD. This will ultimately help us to reach the goal of more rapid research progress, better treatments, and the cures we need. Start your survey here.
