Thank you for your support in our effort to increase awareness, develop effective treatments and possibly, one day, find a cure for Celiac Disease.

The International Walk/Run for Celiac Disease is an annual fundraising event, which is organized and managed by the Center for Celiac Research (CFCR) at the University of Maryland. The Center has raised over $1,500,000 to date. The funds raised are used to increase awareness and support research as well as national and local celiac projects. 75% of the funds go to support research and other national initiatives and 25% to support local communities throughout the country.  Finding the cause of Celiac Disease is a priority of the Center (CFCR). Alessio Fasano, MD, is the Medical Director and a leading expert in the field. A study Dr. Fasano recently conducted concluded that as many as one out 133 Americans may have the disease. In fact, The National Institute of Health (NIH) has recognized celiac disease for the first time as a serious health problem in the United States and estimates almost three million Americans are affected.  For more information on the Center for Celiac Research, please visit www.celiaccenter.org.
