"It is one of the most helpless feelings in the world, to know your child is diagnosed with essentially a life-long disease," said Brock Wagner the president and founder of St. Arnold Brewing.
Wagner, whose daughter was diagnosed with IBD at a young age, is hoping to bring IBD to the forefront and make a difference for those who suffer from it.
Though Wagner's daughter is now an adult, he is teaming up with Texas Children's Hospital to raise money for the hospital's IBD program that researches new treatments for the disease.
In November, Wagner hosted the annual fundraiser "The Feast of St. Arnold" raising $100,000.
"Every year, we have a patient who is super brave and stands up, shares their experience and how important it is to share this research," Wagner said. "Hopefully, they find a cure."
The hospital continues to take donations for its cause through its webpage.
