On October 22, Coach Mark Richt is lacing up his bowling shoes for the third annual Chick-fil-A® Dawg Bowl and he wants YOU on the team! Together, you can help take a big bite out of Parkinson’s and Crohn’s by making a gift today.
This isn’t just about strikes and spares — it’s about impact. Proceeds from the Dawg Bowl (and support from generous Dawgs like you) fuel groundbreaking work at the Isakson Center for Neurological Disease Research, where experts are uncovering the links between Parkinson’s and gut inflammation diseases like Crohn’s.
For Coach Richt, this fight is also personal. His granddaughter Jadyn was diagnosed with Crohn’s as an infant in 2015. In 2021, Coach himself was diagnosed with Parkinson’s. Now, the Richt family is rallying the Bulldog Nation to raise awareness and power the search for new treatments and cures.
With your help, we can reach the $700,000 goal, funding UGA’s Dr. Anumantha Kanthasamy and his team as they chase breakthroughs that will change lives.
Every gift matters. Every Dawg counts.
Glad to help out Coach Richt. One of the finest men (and coaches) we’ve ever had on our sideline.
Coach Richt is a good man and a damn good dawg.
Compassionate, caring, loving, and loyal.
Thanks for sharing this. Great coach. Better man. Wonderful representative for UGA.

Crohns is an awful autoimmune disease and we still don’t know much about it. Really terrible for kids.
