Shaun Amiruddin fundraising for Team #WeWillBeatIB

At 13 months old my son was diagnosed with A.L.L. (Leukemia). Jackson has battled cancer and is on the winning side. Throughout this time we were morally supported by some great people including my friend Patty who even ran a 1/2 marathon with Team JT helping raise over $50,000 for the Leukemia Lymphoma Society.  Now it's my turn to return the favor in honor of her son, Tyler, who battles Crohn's.

1.6 million people in the United States alone suffers from inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are two diseases that can change the course of a person's life forever. Because they are not discussed enough, I want to do my part and help raise awareness for these diseases and help the children, patients and familes that have been touched by IBD. 

This May, I will be riding in the Five Boro Bike Tour for the Intense Intestines Foundation's Cycling the Big Apple for Crohns's & Colitis 2016 ride. The ride is over 40 miles during which we'll be raising awarness for IBD but I will also be raising critical funds to help the Intense Intestines Foundation's programs. 

The IIF's two main programs ar 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.
