The Hoppers have been huge supporters of the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation—Indiana Chapter since 2019. In 2014, Jamie was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease. While he is blessed to have a supportive family and a loving God, not everyone feels that kind of support.

The Hoppers have made it their mission to help find a cure for Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD). Over 3.1 million Americans are afflicted with IBD, including over 70k Hoosiers. We learned in 2022, that babies as young as 2 months old are being diagnosed with digestive diseases now. If you personally know someone that can benefit from a connection to the foundation, reach out to Jamie directly and he will be glad to help.

The money we raise goes toward finding a cure, education and support. It also goes to fund Camp Oasis, an amazing summer camp for school-aged children. IBD is especially hard for children when they are outside the comfort of their own homes. Camp Oasis allows them to be around people that understand their journey and to help them cope with their new lifestyle.

We appreciate any support you can offer. The Indiana Chapter’s Take Steps event is one of the biggest in the country. Know that Money Concepts will also match 50 cents for every dollar raised up to $1500 each year. We also accept matching donations from your employers too if that is possible. Thanks for helping us raise awareness and for any donations of dollars or prayers you have to offer!
