To Whom It May Concern,
The Arthritis Foundation will be holding its annual Walk to Cure Arthritis on Sunday, May 19 at The Great Lawn Pavilion in Long Branch, NJ. We are expecting 450 people to participate in the Walk that morning. The Walk to Cure Arthritis is a celebration of arthritis warriors, while raising awareness and funds for research and vital services and programs for children and adults living with arthritis.

Across the nation, nearly 60 million people are diagnosed with arthritis and 300,000 of these are children. The Arthritis Foundation, advocates every day in state legislatures, insurance and regulator offices and on Capitol Hill for patient access to medications, specialists and optimal care.

Offering life-changing information, resources and support online (arthritis.org) and through its national network of chapters, and collaborative relationships with medical providers including rheumatologists and orthopedists, the Arthritis Foundation is the trusted place to turn to for help and support.
