On Saturday, February 24^th 2018, AOII will be hosting its 5^th annual Spaghetti for Scleroderma to support the Scleroderma Foundation. Our chapter began supporting this foundation while our sister’s mother was battling the disease. Unfortunately, her mother has since passed, and we continue to support the Scleroderma Foundation in her memory with the hope that scientists will find a cure for this terrible disease.

Scleroderma is a chronic disease in which hardening of the skin is one of the most visible symptoms. However, other symptoms include hardening of the internal organs as well as other parts of the body. Currently, the cause of this disease is still unknown and there is no cure for the disease.

Our goal for this year is to raise $5,000 for the Scleroderma Foundation. We are asking for your help to achieve this goal and fuel further research for a cure!
