The mission of Camp Ailihpomeh (Hemophilia spelled backwards) is to serve the needs of boys from age seven to seventeen with bleeding disorders, providing a camping experience for a group of children who have traditionally been excluded from participating in other summer camp programs. The experience of camping with other children in a natural outdoor setting strengthens the child’s ability to cope with the daily physical and emotional challenges of a disability and/or chronic illness.

The Texas Bleeding Disorder Conference (TBDC) is a joint effort between the Lone Star Bleeding Disorders Foundation and the Texas Central Bleeding Disorders. This event brings hundreds of people from all over the state of Texas together for a weekend of education, networking, and fun.

Educational sessions are available for every step of life with a bleeding disorder. A fun final night event wraps up the weekend with activities for the whole family.

The weekend-long retreat will feature educational sessions, social activities, health and wellness workshops, breakout sessions, and much more for all blood sisters (people who identify as female, ages 18+, with any type of a bleeding disorder), or Caregivers/parents (moms or grandmothers) of children with a bleeding disorder.

NBDF’s Washington Days is an opportunity for people affected by inherited blood disorders to advocate for issues that are important to them. In 2025, Washington Days had more than 400 volunteer advocates from 45 states who met with legislators and staff to discuss federal funding for bleeding disorder programs and support policies that increase the affordability of coverage and access to care. This gathering took place in Washington, D.C., on March 5-7, 2025.

Join us for some holiday fun, food, chapter update, board elections and Santa at the San Antonio Marriott Riverwalk.

Limited Space Available!
