Real answers from real patients — ask questions and hear from people who have lived through similar experiences.
Caregiver support — connect with family members and caregivers navigating VEXAS alongside their loved ones.

Birthday or memorial fundraiser

Invite friends and family to support the VEXAS Foundation in lieu of gifts or in honor of someone meaningful to you.

Endurance or community event

Dedicate a race, cycling event, walkathon, workplace event, or community gathering to raising funds and awareness for VEXAS.

Corporate giving and matching

Ask your employer about matching gifts, workplace giving, sponsorships, or other opportunities that may multiply your impact.

Awareness toolkit

Raising awareness is one of the most powerful ways to make a difference for people living with VEXAS. Because VEXAS is still a newly recognized disease, many healthcare providers have never encountered it, and patients often spend years searching for answers. Whether you are educating a physician, supporting a loved one, advocating for yourself, or simply helping others learn about VEXAS, these resources can spark conversations, increase understanding, and help shorten the path to diagnosis and treatment.
