Alliance Update

Join the Alliance as we Support the NHF United for Bleeding Disorders Walk Challenge
by Karen Bowe, Director Community Relations

2022 Unite Walk ChallengeJoin the Hemophilia Alliance as we support the Bleeding Disorders Community through the NHF Unite for Bleeding Disorders Walk Challenge. This is part of the Hemophilia Alliance initiative “HARMONY IN HEMOPHILIA”. Through this collaboration we are encouraging HTCs to work with their Chapters to foster collaboration leading to better patient care.

As a member HTC of the Hemophilia Alliance, all HTC teams that raise $1,000+ for their local Walk program will be recognized by NHF & the Hemophilia Alliance as being a part of our Wall of Walkers. These teams will receive the following:

  • Recognition during Unite Rally Chapter and Community virtual training
  • Recognition from the Hemophilia Alliance in newsletter publications and webinars
  1. Top HTC Fundraising Teams:  Unite Walk Chapters have been broken up into five respective market groups. The top HTC fundraising team in each group will receive a $1000 scholarship to send a staff person to attend the 2023 Bleeding Disorders Conference. HTC sponsorships do not count toward Team Fundraising.
