How will you show your stripes for Rare Disease Day?

[Christina Cordaro]

The zebra has become the official symbol of rare diseases. In honor of the mascot, The National Organization for Rare Diseases (NORD) encourages those with or by a rare disease to wear striped clothing and accessories.

Wearing stripes can start a conversation that helps others learn the facts about the prevalence and challenges of rare diseases.

Take a picture of your striped look and post it on social media with the hashtags #ShowYourStripes and #RareDiseaseDay to raise awareness.

Will you be taking part in this initiative?
