<div>Hi everyone! My name is Juliette Prezioso, and I am an 8th-grade student at Central Middle School. For my Capstone project, I am organizing “Steps for Strength,” a 1-mile walk and 5K run on Saturday, June 13, 2026, at the Greenwich High School track.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I am launching this campaign to raise vital funds for Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), a debilitating autonomic nervous system disorder. POTS is often called an "invisible illness" because individuals look completely fine on the outside while experiencing severe symptoms like a racing heart, extreme fatigue, dizziness, and fainting on the inside. It impacts millions of people worldwide, including many young people and teenage girls right here in our community.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>100% of the funds raised through this page will automatically go directly to Dysautonomia International, the leading non-profit organization dedicated to funding scientific research, raising public awareness, and providing medical education to improve the lives of individuals living with POTS and other forms of dysautonomia.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Whether you are laced up to run with us on June 13th or supporting us from afar, your contribution makes a massive difference. Together, we can fund the research needed to find better treatments and, ultimately, a cure.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you so much for your generosity, your support, and for helping me give a voice to this invisible illness!
