West Virginia Unite Walk
Formerly the National Hemophilia Walk, Unite For Bleeding Disorders is a nationwide event that raises funds and awareness for all bleeding disorders. Participants raise money for crucial research, advocacy and education by joining together in a fun and festive event.
The Walk is about YOU!
It’s an awareness event- to teach people about bleeding disorders that affect YOUR loved ones.
It’s a community gathering – to have fun with other people in YOUR community.
It’s a fundraiser- to provide programs and services that YOU take part in.
When you walk you make a huge impact. All funds raised in West Virginia stay in West Virginia and are used for:
- Programs like Camp Winaca HemoVon and the Annual Education Retreat
- Emergency financial assistance for families in need
- Advocacy at our state and national capitol
- Research into finding cures for bleeding disorders
Plus- It feels good to spend time with family, friends, co-workers, and fellow bleeding disorder families proactively working for a great cause.
