On Friday, September 28, 2007 from 6:30pm to 9:00pm, the National Foundation for Celiac Awareness will hold our fourth annual fall festive event.  Called Appetite for Awareness,  this event is an evening of delicious gluten-free delights.

Our goal is to raise awareness for Celiac Disease and funds to advance research to improve the lives of those who suffer from this autoimmune disease.  

This year, we are honoring a woman who has made an enormous difference to the celiac community. Bruce Gordon of Fox 29 will host our Accolades for Awareness for a true Advocate of Awareness.
