GET INVOLVED

Lupus Canada welcomes and encourages the support of individuals and companies who wish to support our national mission through their own fundraising initiatives. Below are a few ideas of how you can start your own fundraiser in your community and a list of accessible activities so that every Canadian can participate in Lupus Awareness Month.

Donate
Lupus is not as well understood as other “famous” diseases. The lack of awareness among the public, employers, government and even the medical community poses big challenges. With your support, Lupus Canada continues to work hard to improve awareness. Help Lupus Canada by donating at www.lupuscanada.org/get-involved/ways-to-donate/.
To learn more about how your donation helps please visit https://www.lupuscanada.org/get-involved/howyourdonationhelps/.

Fundraise
Start your very own lupus awareness fundraiser on social media (i.e., Facebook, Tiltify, or Instagram) or by organizing an event in your community, such as a paint night.

Spread Awareness
Follow Lupus Canada on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and LinkedIn. Like, share or retweet daily content, share our informational resources, and use our Lupus Awareness Month images available on our website on your social media platforms with the #MakeLupusVisible and #LetsTalkLupus to amplify our voices and gain global recognition of this disease.

Organize An Activity
Organize an activity to involve your local celebrities and local, regional and national press, radio, and TV station to spread the word about your activity. Visit the Canadian Landmarks that will be illuminated in purple on World Lupus Day!
