September 12, 2019, is the 7th Annual MPN Awareness Day, a day dedicated to raising awareness for myeloproliferative neoplasms. In honor of September 12, the MPN Advocates Network wants to hear from YOU: how you are reaching MPN patients, doctors or researchers in your country; how you are helping patients; how you are improving the LIVES of those living with the chronic, rare blood cancers, Polycythemia Vera, Essential Thrombocythemia and Myelofibrosis.

Send the MPN Advocates Network a short video, pictures or a description of what you’re doing (up to 500 words) before August 31st. The MPN Advocates Network’s Steering Committee of global MPN advocates will select ONE project to win $1,000 that will be given to your organization (if you are an accredited charity in your country) OR an MPN researcher of your choosing.

Send entries to mirjana.hema@gmail.com and post them on social media, don’t forget to tag the Global MPN Advocates Network’s Facebook page and use the hashtags #HomeGrownHope4MPN and #MPNAwarenessDay.
