St. Louis Residents Raise Funds for a Cure at Jingle in July for Arthritis
The Christmas season made an early appearance on Saturday July 12 for the Arthritis Foundation’s Jingle in July. This event served as a kick-off for the big Jingle Bell Run/Walk coming in November. There were approximately 175 participants, and over $3,000 was raised in the fight against arthritis.
Sponsored nationally by AbbVie and presented locally by Advanced Bone & Joint, the Jingle Bell Run/Walk series raises awareness and funds to fight and cure arthritis, the nation’s leading cause of disability.
If you missed all the fun, don’t worry! You will have another chance on Sunday, November 23 at this year’s Jingle Bell Run/Walk. For more event details, information on this year’s honorees, the All-You-Can-Eat Pancake Breakfast, how to form a team, fundraising, registration and more, contact Donna Henderson at (314) 447-4883 or dhenderson@arthritis.org or visit the website at www.jinglebellrunstl.org
