The Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Network Walk for Food Allergy: Moving Toward A Cure™
One of our ChAngels, Lisa, is severely allergic to peanuts. She and her family put together a team to walk in the San Francisco FAAN Walk Toward A Cure in September, 2008. Along with numerous family and friends, walking with Lisa was her sister and fellow ChAngel, Sara. ChAngels made a donation to FAAN on behalf of Lisa's team, which with ChAngel's help, raised over $1700 to support allergy education, awareness, and finding a cure. To learn more about food allergies or to find a walk coming to a city near you, visit the FAAN website at: http://www.foodallergy.org/.

Lisa and friends,
I am so happy to see that your walk was such a success in building awareness about allergies - and particularly the peanut allergy. The generous financial contribution will also help research greatly. I am sorry that we couldn't join you but we were pleased to support your effort with a donation.

What a fantastic Blog. I'm reading it for the first time and am highly impressed.
I participated in the Food Alergy Walk and it was a tremendously fun day. I'm just so proud of Lisa and of the ChAngels. They are an impressive crew.
