John Morris and Shinju Morris of Arcadia firm Morris & Morris, a Law Corporation, 150 N.

In addition to raising awareness about arthritis, the funds raised by the cyclists will help the Arthritis Foundation, Pacific Region, support research and community-based education programs for men, women and children affected by arthritis. Although some of the riders are athletes, others just started training to support the cause. Many of the riders suffer from arthritis, which is the most common cause of disability for people in the United States, affecting more than 50 million people, including 300,000 children.


Shinju shared the following…

Alarming Facts about Arthritis:

  1. Arthritis is the leading cause of disability in the U. S. affecting one in five people

  2. The more than 100 forms of arthritis and rheumatic conditions cost our nation’s economy 128 billion dollars annually

  3. Nearly 300,000 children under the age of 17 are affected by juvenile arthritis

  4. More children suffer from the devastating effects of Arthritis than Juvenile Diabetes, Cystic Fibrosis, Cerebral Palsy and Muscular Dystrophy combined.
