PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

Dear Friends,

Hello and Happy Summer Scleroderma Friends!

Hoping you all are enjoying the summer and that you have time to spend with friends and family.

The Scleroderma Foundation of California is enjoying a very busy summer with our A Million Steps for Scleroderma LA/OC in La Mirada was well attended and we realized our fundraising goals. Thank you to all of the very talented people who made this event possible. 

Our next A Million Steps for Scleroderma San Diego event is August 17 and “Jim’s 2025 Journey”, conducted by our intrepid and ambitious board member, Jim Hines, will take him through much of Italy this year. As always, you can follow him along through his wife Roberta’s blog on our website.  

Registration is now open for our San Diego Patient Education Day on September 6 and we have scheduled our Northern California Patient Education Dayon December 6th with further details & registration coming soon. 

Plans are well underway for our 24th Key to A Cure GalaOctober 18 at the Marina del Rey Marriott Hotel – please be sure to “save the date.” And of course, our support groups are ongoing with additional groups forming. 

As always, we welcome your interest, ideas and support. 

Let us hear from you!

Laura Fuhrman
