Several Hollywood stars have recently come together to show their support for a very important cause – the fight against lupus. Rashida Jones, Sharon Stone, Michael B. Jordan, Melissa Joan Hart, and Seal have all joined forces to raise awareness and funds for the non-profit organization Lupus LA.
Lupus is a chronic autoimmune disease that affects millions of people around the world, with women being at a higher risk. It is a complex and unpredictable disease that can cause inflammation and damage to various parts of the body, including the skin, joints, and internal organs. Unfortunately, there is no cure for lupus, and many patients struggle with managing the symptoms on a daily basis.
In the midst of this ongoing battle, Lupus LA has been a beacon of hope for patients and their families. The organization aims to improve the quality of life for people living with lupus through education, support, and advocacy. They also fund research initiatives to find better treatments and ultimately, a cure for this debilitating disease.
Rashida Jones, best known for her roles in ”Parks and Recreation” and ”The Office”, has been a long-time supporter of Lupus LA. She has been actively involved in raising awareness and funds for the organization, and has even served as the honorary chair for their annual fundraising event, the Orange Ball.
In an interview, Jones shared, ”I have a personal connection to lupus as my mother has been living with the disease for over 20 years. I have seen firsthand the impact it has on individuals and their families. That’s why I am proud to support Lupus LA and their efforts to raise awareness and find a cure.”
Sharon Stone, the iconic actress known for her roles in ”Basic Instinct” and ”Casino”, has also been a vocal advocate for lupus. She has been a part of Lupus LA’s annual ”Get Lucky for Lupus” poker tournament, which raises funds for the organization’s programs and services.
Stone has been a passionate supporter of the cause for many years and has even testified before Congress to bring attention to the needs of lupus patients. She said, ”Lupus is a serious and often misunderstood disease. It is important for us to come together and support organizations like Lupus LA that are making a difference in the lives of those who are affected.”
Joining these Hollywood stars in their support for Lupus LA is Michael B. Jordan, who has risen to fame with his roles in ”Black Panther” and the ”Creed” franchise. Jordan has been an active participant in Lupus LA’s annual walks and has used his platform to bring attention to the organization’s mission.
”I believe it is important to use my voice and platform to support causes that are close to my heart. Lupus LA is doing incredible work in raising awareness and providing support for those affected by lupus. I am proud to be a part of their efforts,” said Jordan.
Melissa Joan Hart, known for her starring roles in ”Sabrina the Teenage Witch” and ”Melissa & Joey”, has also been a strong supporter of Lupus LA. She has been involved with the organization for many years and has used her social media presence to promote their events and initiatives.
Hart has also shared her personal connection to lupus, saying, ”I have a family member who has lupus, and I have seen the impact it has on their life. That’s why I am committed to supporting Lupus LA and their mission to find a cure for this disease.”
Last but not least, Grammy-winning artist Seal has also shown his support for Lupus LA. The singer has performed at their annual Orange Ball and has used his music to bring attention to the cause. He has also been actively involved in raising funds for the organization.
In a statement, Seal expressed his admiration for Lupus LA’s work, saying, ”I am inspired by the work that Lupus LA is doing to help those living with lupus. As someone who has lost a family member to the disease, this cause is very close to my heart. I will continue to support their efforts and spread awareness wherever I can.”
The support of these Hollywood stars has been invaluable in raising awareness and funds for Lupus LA. Their involvement has helped to shed light on this often overlooked disease and has given hope to those living with lupus.
