Dorothy Kwatinetz fundraising for Team #WeWillBeat
A nonprofit fundraiser supporting
Intense Intestines FoundationOn Sunday, May 1st I will be riding over 40 miles to help the Intense Intestines Foundation and those with inflammatory bowel diseases.

raised by 10 people
$1,700 goal
Over 1.6 million people in the United States alone suffers from inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). I am one of them. I was diagnosed in 1983. Every year in college I would have flair ups that ended me in the hospital. Finally in 1986, I had a resection of my intestines. At the time they didn't realize how bad the situation was. I had a hole in my intestines. Since then I have not had any major flair ups and went through 3 pregnancies. I am one of the lucky ones. I hear devastating stories from friends and acquaintances. It can change your life forever, financially, physically & emotionally.
The IIF's two main programs are the Intense Intestines IBDebt and Intense Intestines Scholarship. Both of these are designed to help children, patients and their familes with the financial hardships that come along with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.
Please help me reach my goal by making a 100% tax deductible donation today. You'll be helping out so many people in the process.
Thank you very much ahead of time for your donation and helping me reach my goal for the IIF's mission.
