🏃♂️ Meet Calvin Harris! 🏃♂️ For Calvin, running in the 2024 TCS New York City Marathon for the Foundation for Sarcoidosis Research is more than just a race—it's a personal journey of triumph. Living with pulmonary sarcoidosis makes every breath a fight, but running, even at a slower pace, is a vital part of that fight for Calvin. As a proud member of the FSR Board of Directors, Calvin has found support and purpose. “This marathon is a chance to spotlight sarcoidosis, rallying support for research and for those impacted by the disease. Every step I take and every dollar raised brings us closer to a future where sarcoidosis can be effectively treated or even cured.” Let's cheer on Calvin as he runs to make a difference! https://loom.ly/eRsY02Y 💜 #TeamRallyForSarc #TCSNYCMarathon #FSR #SarcoidosisAwareness

On July 21, 2024, the Simple Cora Foundation hosted "Strikes for Sarc" at a lively bowling alley in Staten Island, New York. The event was a warm and heartfelt tribute to Sylvia Guerra-Cora, who passed away on October 23, 2020. Organized by her three sons, the day celebrated Sylvia's legacy of kindness and generosity. The atmosphere was filled with joy and camaraderie. Balloons adorned the venue, and the sounds of laughter and bowling pins clattering added to the excitement. It felt like a big family gathering, with relatives, friends, and new acquaintances coming together to support a great cause. Sylvia's loved ones shared stories about her, painting a picture of a woman who believed that "every little bit counts." T-shirts were on sale, and a lively raffle with four prizes kept the energy high. The bowling alley buzzed with positivity, and the Cora family's warmth made everyone feel welcome. The event wasn't just a fundraiser for the Foundation for Sarcoidosis Research; it was a celebration of a community united in love and support. FSR is honored to receive over $4,000 from the funds raised at the event. It was a beautiful day filled with smiles, memories, and a shared commitment to making a difference in Sylvia's honor. Do you have a unique passion or want to host a fundraising event in memory of a sarcoidosis patient? Learn more about how you can make a difference by organizing your own event.
