Thank you for visiting my personal fundraising page to support the "Stepping Out to Cure Scleroderma" event on Saturday, February 22, 2025 at Tradewinds Park in Coconut Creek, FL. The face of scleroderma includes people of all ages, genders and backgrounds. It can affect every organ of the body; and, the life impact is different for each scleroderma patient. 

Unfortunately, the cause of scleroderma is still unknown and a cure is still needed. So please consider supporting us this year and a big thank you to those who have supported us in the past! 

Doing what I can to support the National Scleroderma Foundation and other patients is very important to me. I have continued my role of Chair of Florida-Puerto Rico Chapter Advisory Committee as well as a Chapter Support Group Facilitator. 

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to make a contribution to support me and help raise funds for scleroderma patients. To make a donation, click the "Donate Now" button that appears under my photo. Then, just follow the instructions.

If you would like to join me and help raise funds, please click on “Join My Team” and follow the directions. Our team name is "Desi's Feet on Fire Squad".

Please help today! As a scleroderma patient, I sincerely appreciate your support, and ask that you please share this with anyone who you think might want to help.

Help me bring more awareness to scleroderma so we can find a cure!
