September is Pulmonary Fibrosis Awareness Month - Join ME SPA in Supporting the Cause!
September is Pulmonary Fibrosis Awareness Month, a time when we come together to raise awareness and take action against pulmonary fibrosis - a debilitating lung disease that affects 1 in every 200 people worldwide. We are proud to announce that this year, ME SPA is a Gold Sponsor of the annual PFF (Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation) Walk. As part of our commitment to the cause, we will be hosting fundraising events in-spa and joining the annual PFF walk event in Chicago on September 16th. We invite all of our guests to join us in raising awareness for Pulmonary Fibrosis and making a lasting impact in the lives of those affected.
ME SPA was founded as a luxury day spa and wellness center in honor of our Owner & CEO Lisa Nissanoff's mother, Ruth Jacobs, who passed away from Pulmonary Fibrosis. Each year, a portion of ME SPA's Monthly Wellness Membership Program proceeds go towards the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation.

Ways to Participate with ME:
Join in the Chicago PFF Walk: We invite you to join ME SPA Naperville at the Chicago PFF Walk, where we will come together to walk towards a cure for PF. The walk will be held at Diversey Harbor on September 16th. Check in is at 9AM and you can meet our team at the ME SPA booth where we will be providing complimentary chair massages. After completing the walk, we invite you to stay for a celebration that will include various activities for all ages and light refreshments. Tap here for PFF’s Official 2023 Walker Guide for everything you need to know about this year’s walk.
Participate in a Virtual Walk: If you are unable to physically attend the Chicago walk, you can still make an impact by participating in a virtual walk with the rest of our spas for PFF’s National Walk Day on September 30th! Wear a turquoise blue shirt, choose your own walking route and grab a partner to stride with to demonstrate your support for PF. Snap a photo and share it with us on social using the hashtags #PFMonth #BlueUp4PF and #PFAwarenessMonth to raise awareness and inspire others. To register for the virtual event, tap here. Registration is free.
Donate to Our Fundraising Campaign: Every contribution matters. Help us create a lasting impact in the lives of those affected by Pulmonary Fibrosis by making a donation to our fundraising campaign. Donations to our fundraising campaign will support ongoing research to find a cure for PF and enhance patient care and support programs for individuals and families affected by this disease.
