Ipswich's own, Talia Duff, is fighting CMT4J. Your involvement not only helps ensure that programs like swim safety, childcare, and youth development remain accessible to everyone who needs them but also strengthens our community bond. We can’t wait to see you at the starting line.
By participating, you’re not just running a race—you’re supporting the Y’s mission to strengthen our community. This year, we are excited to collaborate with the Cure CMT4J Foundation with the Chase the Butterfly 5K! CureCMT4J is an Ipswich-based non profit dedicated to raising awareness and funding toward treatments for an extremely rare, deadly neurological disease. Similar to ALS, CMT4J causes progressive weakness that can lead to quadriplegia and respiratory failure.
