Hey everybody, I just wanted to update you on our Take Steps team, which has now raised $285! Thanks to everybody who has donated so far. The walk is in May, so you still have time to get your donations in. Nadia and I really appreciate that many people are willing to donate their money to help find a cure for inflammatory bowel disease. I know it’ll be a long road until we get there, but every little bit helps.
If you’d like to make a donation, visit our Take Steps page.
Keep fighting,
~Dennis

Hey everybody,
Our second week of fundraising for the 2010 Take Steps walk saw a few more donations this week. Currently you’ve helped us raise $185! We’re about 9% of the way to $2,000, so we have a long way to go.
Again, money from Take Steps goes to help pay for IBD research, to help find better treatments and one day a cure. I know these are all goals you have so if you can spare a few dollars, consider making a donation. You can visit our donation page here. Thanks for all your help!
Keep fighting,
~Dennis

Hey everybody,
Our first week of fundraising for the 2010 Take Steps walk has gotten off to a great start. Currently we’ve raised $150! This credit goes to Nadia’s support team. I need to get on my partners more, apparently!
If you’d like to support out team, which will be participating in the Twin Cities walk in Minnesota this May, visit our team page and make a donation today! It doesn’t matter whose name you donate it in, Nadia’s or mine. What matters is getting that donation in to help pay for IBD research!
Keep fighting,
~Dennis

Hey everybody, Nadia and I have created a team for the CCFA’s Take Steps fundraiser. We will be participating in the Minneapolis, Minnesota Take Steps on May 23.
This is where we need your help! Our initial goal is to raise $2,000 for the CCFA, which will go to research into IBD and outreach for IBD patients. If you’ve gotten help from UCVlog.com and want to give back, consider donating to our team.
Donate by visiting this page. Donations are easy and secure through the CCFA.
Even if you donate $10 that would be greatly appreciated and would go a long way in reaching our goal. If you want to donate more, that’s fine as well!
We thank you in advance for any help with this fundraiser!
Keep fighting,
~Dennis

Often in the past, my local ostomy support group has gathered and collected new/unused ostomy supplies and has sent them to Haiti to patients with ostomies. We take collections once a month and periodically ship to a facility in Haiti to distribute these medical supplies. NOW YOU CAN HELP! If you have unused/new ostomy supplies or any other medical supplies please send them in care of me. And I will ensure they get to the people of Haiti who need them! We will be taking ongoing donations, so at anytime we will be happy to receive your new leftover supplies.
Your stoma size may have changed, allergies to flanges may have developed, trying different companies for the perfect fit are many reasons for those extra supplies you may have. These unused and no longer needed supplies can be shipped to third world countries such as Haiti who have little or no ostomy equipment. Following the horrific earthquake in Haiti, many people are left with nothing. Just think of all the people we can help! Haiti was in need so much before this earthquake, but even more now.
So, if you are interested in donating, you can ship your unused supplies to:
