RAISE
AWARENESS
TELL YOUR STORY
Don't forget, every day is a Day of Awareness for VBF, so it’s
not too late to plan a Day of Awareness event this year. Contact VBF
at awareness@birthmark.org
about your event.
Every birthmark tells a story. Please share your story with VBF.
If you, your child, family member, or a friend has been affected by a
vascular birthmark, let others know it impacted your life. Was VBF able
to help you receive treatment and support?
