Participating in the Huffing Off Stuffing 5K is a great way to run off that turkey dinner and join the Lupus Foundation of America, Connecticut Chapter in raising awareness and helping solve the cruel mystery.

“Lupus affects an estimated 17,000 people in Connecticut alone, but many people do not understand what lupus is or what it does, so it is crucial to increase awareness through events like our Huffing Off Stuffing 5K,” says Corrianne Gagliardi, Director of Development & Communications.
