get involved

Join us in in the battle against Neutropenia. Together, we can support children, adults, and families in their journey to find answers and find mutual support. Below are ways you can get involved.

Advocate

Help the National Neutropenia Network to build a network of advocates who can take action on issues that affect individuals with neutropenia and their families.  Help us to increase awareness of neutropenia among healthcare professionals. To become an advocate, please contact us.

Fundraise

Supporters of the National Neutropenia Network can do a number of events to support our mission:

• Host a fundraiser in your area at a local establishment such as Dave & Busters, Cherry Berry, Buffalo Wild Wings, etc. Connect with the manager at your local restaurant to determine what works best for you. If you have questions or wish to fundraise for the National Neutropenia Network, please contact us.
• In lieu of gifts, donations can be given to your favorite charity.++
• Active Challenge: create your own personal challenge such as swimming, running, or walking. Set a goal and ask your family & friends to donate to your cause. You can do this on your own or through our ‘Steps for Neutropenia’ event.
• Host a Facebook Fundraiser.
• Shop through ‘Giving Assistant,’ where you can save money shopping and impact your favorite non-profits.
• RoundUp App: “round up” the change from your debit or credit card purchases and donate it to us monthly. See Program Details, How it works, and Security Information.
