Columbus Walk to End Lupus Now®

This year’s Walk to End Lupus Now® in Columbus is moving indoors at the Center of Science and Industry (COSI). That's right! We’re taking over, and turning the #1 science museum in the country purple! So dress to impress, and connect with the rest of the Ohio lupus community.

All registered walkers will receive free admission to COSI on walk day! Explore world class exhibits, hands-on displays, and the largest planetarium in Ohio! We look forward to unite and celebrate with all of our patients, volunteers, and their support systems!

The Walk To End Lupus Now® in Cleveland is Saturday, September 6th.
Join us as we return to the Flats East Bank as we celebrate our communities impact through fundraising and take to the streets to create awareness! The Greater Ohio Chapter was built by patients and their families. And nearly 49 years later we are the only remaining patient-led chapter in the LFA! Whether you've been in the trenches fighting with us, or you've been on the sideline watching from afar, we're still here for you and we need your help more than ever!
