Did you know there are over 50,000 Illinois and NW Indiana residents living with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis, known collectively as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). IBD affects men and women equally and can affect any racial or ethnic group.  Most patients are diagnosed between 15 and 35, but IBD can be diagnosed at any age.  The fastest-growing patient population is under the age of 18. 


The Love Laila Foundation's Crohn's & Colitis Walk of Northwest Indiana (NWI) includes food, music, vendors, and family activities that will bring people from all across the Chicago area and NWI to join together in fun, solidarity, and purpose.  If you are a business or a community organization, we are in hope that you will support this event in whatever capacity that you can; make a donation, be a route sign(s) sponsor, sponso
r a team, encourage your clients or membership to participate, provide a service, or promotional goody bag item to make this third annual walk in Northwest Indiana memorable.  All donations are tax-deductible.
