Community
Involvement
Baxter has been there for the hemophilia community for almost 50 years. We know that the strength of the community is built upon the dedication and involvement of community members like you. Baxter recognizes the importance of staying involved in the community and encourages you to continue to focus on the community. The hemophilia community is always there for you when you need it, so it’s important to connect and give back to the community to make it even stronger.
Getting involved with your community helps you connect with others who may be experiencing similar transitions and challenges. It can also help you develop strong leadership skills and a sense of responsibility, which could help give you an edge through college and career.1
Give back to your community through volunteer opportunities and NHF chapter events. Another great, easy way to participate and stay informed is to join online social networks. Online communities like MyBloodBrothers.com, HFA Blood Brotherhood forums, or various hemophilia groups on Facebook can help you connect with others with hemophilia, build relationships, and find support and information at any place, any time.
