Please join us for the 2024 Stepping Out Traverse City Night at the Ballpark (Upper Great Lakes Chapter)!

We encourage you to join the National Scleroderma Foundation, Upper Great Lakes Chapter 2024 walk!

Stepping Out to Cure Scleroderma is a great way to raise funds while enjoying time with members of our community, friends and family. Together we can help support people living with scleroderma, raise awareness and ultimately find a cure! Become a team captain, create your own fundraising page and encourage your network of friends and family to help you. It is very easy to share on Facebook and X, too!

Your participation supports the Foundation’s mission to advance medical research, promote disease awareness, and provide support and education to people with scleroderma, their families and support network. Generous donors and participants like you are moving us closer to our vision of finding a cure for scleroderma.

Start by signing up, then grow your team by:

  1. Inviting your friends and family to join your team and register for the walk.
  2. Setting a fundraising goal for you and/or your team members. Remember, every dollar is a significant contribution.
  3. When fundraising, take photos and share them with the Upper Great Lakes Chapter. We will post them on our social media platforms.
