Spirit Week returns May 10–16 as part of our 22nd Anniversary celebration, bringing together the IgAN community through a series of interactive, uplifting activities designed to engage, connect, and empower. IgAN Aware Day on May 14 will serve as the centerpiece of the week, uniting patients, families, and advocates around a shared mission of awareness and hope. Follow along on social media for daily challenges, inspiring stories, and meaningful ways to participate.

As part of this milestone year, we are also proud to bring back Strike Out IgAN, a nationwide, family-friendly initiative that brings our community together at MLB ballparks across the country. From the San Diego Padres to the New York Mets, patients, families, and supporters will gather for unforgettable evenings of connection, celebration, and community.

With 22 events across the country, each one represents a year of impact, resilience, and progress as we celebrate 22 years of advancing awareness, supporting patients, and driving toward a cure.
