c5 Wealth Management Sponsoring 5th Annual Weve Got Your Back Race/Walk
Spinal Research Foundation event on May 12, raises awareness of spinal health and contributes to life-changing research and educational programs
April 11, 2012 c5 Wealth Management, LLC, is proud to sponsor the 5 Annual Weve Got Your Back Race for Spinal Health, the signature awareness and fundraising event of the Spinal Research Foundation (SRF). The Race/Walk will be held on Saturday, May 12, 2012 in Reston, Virginia, and includes a Spinal Health Fair focused on nutrition, exercise, and prevention of spinal problems. It will also show what people can do to ensure good bone health. The Race/Walk is also an occasion to celebrate Spinal Champions who have overcome back and neck pain and are no longer suffering. Funds raised at the event contribute directly to life-changing research and educational programs conducted by SRF. More than 90 percent of the population will suffer from severe neck and/or low back pain during their lifetime, said Thomas C. Schuler, MD, president of the Spinal Research Foundation. Approximately 10 percent of these people develop chronic pain, which means that at any given time, 35 million people in the United States are directly affected by disabling pain and many more indirectly. At c5 we are proud to help raise awareness and funding for such a prevalent and life-altering issue, said Paul Bennett, Managing Partner of c5 Wealth Management.
