Step Up for Celiac
Support our Peer-to-Peer Fundraiser for Celiac Canada
October 1-31, 2025
Get active. Have fun. Make a difference.
Canadians across the country came together this October to Step Up for Celiac! This virtual peer-to-peer fundraiser lets you walk, run, cycle, or paddle 5 km or more in support of the 1 in 100 Canadians living with celiac disease.
There’s no registration fee — we simply ask each participant to try to raise a minimum of $200 to help us reach our goal of $50,000 by October 31. All funds raised go toward Celiac Canada’s vital programs that FIND, TREAT, and CURE celiac disease.
How it Works
- Register for free – sign up as an individual or a team.
- Choose Your Activity – Run, walk, cycle, paddle – your pace, your place.
- Fundraise – Share your fundraising page with family and friends
- Track Your Progress – Log your distance and donations throughout the month
- Celebrate Your Impact – See the difference you’ve made in the lives of others
Run, Walk, Cycle or Paddle Anywhere Across Canada!
Funds raised support our programs that Find-Treat-Cure celiac disease.
Join us virtually from October 1-31.
Your Impact
Every dollar you raise helps Celiac Canada:
- improve diagnosis rates through awareness campaigns and tools
- provide education and support to families, seniors and underserved communities
- advocate for more affordable, safer food
- invest in research towards a cure
Why Step Up?
Celiac disease is serious, lifelong, and often invisible. By stepping up, you’re not just getting active – you’re giving hope to those who often suffer in silence. Rally your community and show them what support looks like.
