If you are the parent or caregiver of a child with a bleeding disorder, you don’t want to miss the HOPE Family Day! Join the Bleeding Disorders Foundation of North Carolina (BDFNC) at Marbles Kids Museum in Raleigh for lunch and a special presentation. All attendees will also receive FREE admission for the museum.

We’ll have an interactive and engaging session by Penelope Sirianna and Jennifer Newman, MSPT, from the UNC Hemophilia Treatment Center as they explore the topic of safety and sports for kids with bleeding disorders. The presentation will highlight the many benefits of staying active while prioritizing safety and empowering families to make informed choices about sports and physical activities. Plus, thanks to Penelope’s fundraising efforts, she and Jennifer have some exciting giveaways planned for the kids to reinforce key takeaways in a fun and memorable way!

In addition to lunch and the presentation, there will be crafts and the opportunity to network and connect with other families that have a child with a bleeding disorder. Following the presentation, everyone will receive tickets to enjoy Marbles Kids Museum. Marbles Kids Museum is located in the heart of downtown Raleigh and features educational and hands-on exhibits as well as an IMAX theater.

Registration is required. Please register by clicking the button below by Sunday, February 23. This event is part of BDFNC’s HOPE Program. The mission of the HOPE Programs is to improve the quality of life for families of children with a bleeding disorder, so that they may HOPE to lead a fulfilling life.
