Lac du Bonnet Stroll

Join us in Lac du Bonnet for Stroll for Liver!
Saturday, August 17, 2019
Help us change the future for Canadians with liver disease! Join us for the Stroll for Liver –a family friendly, community-based walk/run event dedicated to raising funds for liver research and education.
1 in 4 Canadians may be affected by liver disease – Alice is one of them.
Alice was only 4 days old when jaundice prompted her parents to bring her to the hospital. After a battery of invasive tests and procedures, Alice was diagnosed with an incurable liver disease called biliary atresia. She underwent emergency, life-saving surgery at just 68 days old. Without this surgery, she would not survive past her second birthday.
Alice is now an active, curious toddler, but she still goes for regular checkups and tests to monitor her condition. Since there is no cure for biliary atresia, it’s hard to know what the future will hold for Alice or other children with this and other liver diseases. Alice may one day need a liver transplant.

Tells us Why You Walk/Stroll/Run.
When you join any of our STROLL for LIVER events this summer, we will be supporting YOUR reason to walk/run/stroll. Submit a photo* before the event so that together, we may remember those we have lost, celebrate those who have survived, and connect with those who have stepped along the same path as us.
*Please note: Submitted photos may be displayed on the day of the event. The CLF may also contact you ahead of time and invite you to share your story.
