The event will benefit the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of Canada (CCFC). There is no known cure for Crohn's Disease or Ulcerative Colitis. The CCFC is committed to raise funds for medical research. We invite you to visit their website: http://www.ccfc.ca/

We borrow from the CCFC website in saying that "We, like many who deal with Inflammatory Bowel Disease, address the issues of bowel function and feces in a direct manner, and occasionally with humour. We do so with the best of intent and the desire to help you face this disease openly and frankly. Our aim is to take IBD out of the shadows where it will remain unless more people talk about it directly."
