We are proud to have the following Corporate Partners for our 2010 walks and extend to them our sincere thanks for their support:
  
This year we have added a Virtual Walk option to the Walk a Block for Lupus website. A virtual walk is a great way to show your support. Should you not be able to attend a walk in your area, a Virtual walk allows you to take a step to help conquer lupus by making a donation to your local lupus organization, no matter where you live!
The Top 10 online fundraisers from across the country will be entered into a draw for a two-night stay at any Delta Hotel or Resort across Canada (valued at $360). New this year, the top fundraiser in each Province (Member Organization) will be awarded a gift bag from Jergens Canada (valued at $100). The cut-off to qualify for the contest is June 30th, 2010.

Working together to conquer lupus
Lupus Canada is very excited to announce the launch of an exciting partnership campaign between Jergens® natural GLOW Daily Moisturizer and Lupus Canada to create awareness and raise funds to shed light on lupus!!!
Skintervention is an online campaign that will see Jergens® Canada donate $1.00 to Lupus Canada for the first 5,000 people who become fans of Jergens Canada on Facebook and write “Shed Light on Lupus”. As Colin Mochrie says - in one of the online videos where he is challenged to calculate just how large that donation could be - that’s ‘quite a bit’ to help the tens of thousands of Canadian men, women and children living with lupus!
This campaign is geared to drive people to the Jergens Canada Facebook page from the Skintervention campaign site at www.skintervention.ca where there is more detailed information about lupus (‘Support Lupus’), about the campaign itself and where you’ll find the videos shot by our celebrity ambassadors Colin Mochrie and Debra McGrath. You can also follow along on Twitter @Skintervention.
We are certain this campaign will bring increased awareness to lupus as an under-recognized and under-funded disease and hope you will spread the word and help “Shed Light on Lupus”!
