REDS4VEDS Day is a global campaign that takes place on the third Friday of May each year to help raise awareness of vascular Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (vascular EDS), a rare genetic disorder.
REDS4VEDS was launched in May 2015 and is hosted by Annabelle's Challenge. The campaign continues to gain momentum year on year helping to raise awareness for those who are touched by vascular EDS, it is also a great way to raise vital funds for research.
The format for REDS4VEDS is free and simple to get involved with:
- Share on your socials using the hashtag #REDS4VEDS
Participants are encouraged to engage through places of work, school, and colleges. You can wear as much or as little red as you want just so long as it’s red! The key to the success of the campaign is the hashtag #REDS4VEDS which helps pull the campaign together.
