Giving Tuesday

A global day of giving, the Tuesday after Thanksgiving. Here is where yours goes.

What it is

A day the whole world gives

Giving Tuesday is a global day of charitable giving, held every year on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving. A gift to Lone Star that day reaches families across South Texas living with hemophilia, von Willebrand disease and the rare factor disorders.

Where your gift goes

Three things it pays for

Not overheads, and not a number on a chart. These.

Camp Ailihpomeh

A summer camp for boys with bleeding disorders, where a seven-year-old learns to infuse his own medication. That is the step toward independence the whole week is built around.

The Texas Bleeding Disorders Conference

A weekend that brings families from across the state together for education — and for the part that matters more, which is meeting other people going through the same thing.

Helping Hands

Financial assistance for a family whose child has spent a week in the hospital with a dangerous bleed. Those costs do not wait for the insurance to be sorted out.
