SPECIAL HIGHLIGHTS

The Central Ohio chapter would like to thank everyone who came out to the 2009 Take Steps Columbus walk on May 3, 2009.  This has been Central Ohio's most successful event ever raising over $85,000!


DELAWARE TEEN CHOSEN AS
2009 TAKE STEPS "HONORED HERO"
Hayley Shaw Serves as an Inspiration to the Community

Delaware Hayes freshman, Hayley Shaw has a busy upcoming year filled with schoolwork, softball, volleyball, and hanging out with friends.  But Hayley has more responsibilities than most teenagers; she suffers from Crohn's disease, which requires numerous medications, treatments, doctor's appointments and even hospitalization.  Despite the painful disease she has had for six years, Hayley maintains an incredibly positive attitude, focusing on helping to find a cure for Crohn's disease.  The Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of America, Central Ohio Chapter, recently chose Hayley as the 2009 "Honored Hero" for their Take Steps event, a fundraiser scheduled for May 3rd, 2009 at Crew Stadium!  Between now and then, Hayley will bravely share her experience, helping to raise awareness and encouraging the community to fundraise and attend the walk event.
