Q: Info for Crohn’s patients & their family?
The Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation of America has a website that you obtain information ranging from the latest treatments, diet, surgery, women’s issues, to locating a local chapter near your town. These support chapters offer educational meetings (drug reps, dieticians, MDs)as well as regular support for pts. & their families led by healthcare professionals.

CCFA also has an online chat M-F as well as a toll free number where you can talk to a healthcare expert well versed in IBD. www.ccfa.org.

You are not alone. I’ve been a crohn’s vetran since the age of 12 & have seen firsthand how their expertise has made it possible for myself as well as countless others learn how to take control of the disease & not let it take controlof us.

Wishing all crohnies a complete remission. :)

A: I completely agree. I have struggled with Crohn’s disease since age 8. The CCFA (formerly NFIC) has been my best resource for information and networking with patients and physicians for about 25 years. Find a group near you and share your frustrations – AND your joys!

Q: What to name my fundraiser? HELP?
In mid May I’m co-hosting a wine party as a fundraiser and need a name for the event! Please help!
The background: The fundraiser is for the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation of America (CCFA). The hosts names are Alex and Nicole. We are Running the Napa to Sonoma Wine Country Half Marathon with CCFA Team Challenge. The wine party will feature all Texas wines. We are having two live bands play — it will just be a laid back social event.
Any ideas on what we could name the event? I’m running out of time to decide because I need to start posting stuff about the event. ahh! Help please!

if this will help, you can visit www.my13miles.com — its my website and it may give you a better idea about the foundation.

A: will this money go for research programs? if so, how bout Wine for Wisdom?

Q: Masquerade Ball for Charity?
Hey everyone..I’ve had this idea in my head for about 3 years now to plan a masquerade ball benefiting the CCFA (Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation of America) in my neighborhood and now that our junior prom is masquerade themed this year..i have the confidence to pull it off.

Anyway..I need tips. My dream is to have a traditional ball..women wear gowns, men wear tuxes, finger food, open bar, masks off at twelve, out by twelve thirty..all in a room covered in lights and draped in fabric

BUT..I have to think realistically..this would be for high school students in the surrounding area. and out of my own pocket. getting music together and advertising the event would be fairly easy and cheap however i know if i want a cheap place to hold the location..i’d turn to my local Y…which really isn’t the proper esthetic at all..I live in the suburbs of philly so if anyone knows a reasonable place then let me know! but back to the big picture..how do i make it seem so appealing to get people to want to come? granted coming would mean they’d probably have to spend a bit so I have to make it seem really appealing..and also..any tips on how to generally make it seem classier on a budget? and…do you think it’ll be okay to throw the dance in say..the fall/winter when our jr. prom is saturday? in other words..do you think people will still want to come when they just attended something with the same theme?

A: This sounds rather expensive
i would rather go for a 60s theme
it will be much cheaper as you only need a disoc ball
