Rare Disease Day takes place on the last day of February each year. The main objective of Rare Disease Day is to raise awareness amongst the general public and decision-makers about rare diseases and their impact on peoples' lives . Every donation in support of Rare Disease Day strengthens the global rare disease movement. By increasing awareness for people living with a rare disease, your gift will help mobilize individuals and communities around the world to work towards more equitable access to diagnosis, treatment, care and social opportunity. Thank you for your support!
