Social Media Takeover

#RareAndRadiantChallenge

This June, take part in the #WearYourStripesChallenge—a powerful, visible way to raise awareness for rare disease during Pride Month by proudly wearing zebra stripes and sharing your connection to the rare community. Whether you’re a patient, caregiver, sibling, healthcare provider, researcher, friend, or ally, this campaign is open to everyone. While we’ll spotlight LGBTQ+ rare warriors throughout the month, you do not need to identify as queer to participate. This is about solidarity, celebration, and community.

 

Take the Challenge—Here’s How:

  1. Dress in zebra stripes—get creative with clothes, accessories, makeup, or face paint.
  2. Post a photo or video and share your rare disease connection in the caption: Are you living with a rare disease? Supporting someone? Driving innovation or change?
  3. Use the hashtag: #WearYourStripesChallenge
  4. Tag 3 others to keep the awareness ripple going.
  5. Add a Pride lens if you’re part of the LGBTQ+ community and want to share how your identity intersects with rare.

 

Throughout the campaign, our team will feature incredible LGBTQ+ rare warriors across platforms. Stay tuned on Instagram and LinkedIn to meet powerful voices moving advocacy forward.
