Holidays of Helping Event

Dec 1 - Dec 25

The holiday season is a time of celebration, and there is nothing better than showing our gratitude for our friends facing rare diseases!

From December 1st to December 25th, Student Advocates for Rare Diseases chapters will be hosting a series of donation drives, card making events, care packaging sessions, and fundraisers. Items collected and purchased with our monetary donations will be used to assemble care packages and buy the holiday care packages and wishlist items for children facing rare diseases. Cards will be used to spread positivity to the hospital environment for both children, adults, and their families.

Holidays of Helping is aimed at spreading positivity and holiday spirit to hospital patients within our chapters’ geographic locations.

Here at Student Advocates for Rare Diseases, we're excited to host our second holiday initiative called Holidays of Helping. This event is all about showing appreciation and support for the rare disease community.
