As you know, Walk for Lupus Now season is underway, and monies raised from these events support lupus research, lupus education programs, and patient and family support services.

Here is a listing of upcoming Walks, taking place this weekend, June 6-7.

• Orange County, California -- June 6, 2009
• St. Petersburg, Florida -- June 6, 2009

If you live in this area, I certainly hope you will join us. Or if you have friends or family in this area, please share this with them as well.

To see what other Walk for Lupus Now events are taking place near you, please visit http://www.lupus.org/walk.

If there is no Walk near you, you can still help the LFA by setting up your own fundraising page and participating in your own walk. For example, you could walk your local mall, hiking path or community park.

Until next time.
