Our Community Is Coming Together. Here Is How You Can Help

Hi everyone,

As we approach the end of the year, our entire Ben’s Friends network is launching our annual community support campaign. Each forum plays an important role, so we wanted to share a few simple ways you can help strengthen this space we all rely on.

Most importantly, there is never any expectation to give financially. Just being here, supporting one another, and sharing your experiences already makes this community special.

If you do want to be involved, here are a few meaningful ways to support:

  1. Share your story

Member stories are at the heart of this campaign. Sharing what this community has meant to you helps others see the difference we’re making together, helps new members feel less alone, and shows everyone the real impact this community has on people’s lives.

You can share right in this post, or email it privately to us at: info@bensfriends.org
If you prefer, you’re welcome to share your story anonymously, just let us know!

  1. Share the campaign with friends or family

Even if you cannot donate, you can still make a huge difference by spreading the word. We will be posting a simple copy-and-paste toolkit soon to make this easy.

  1. Donate if you are able

For anyone who wants to make a gift, here is the campaign link: https://donate.bensfriends.org. Every gift helps us keep more than 40 rare disease communities open, welcoming, and free to use.

No matter how you choose to participate, thank you for being part of this community. Together, we help make sure no one faces a rare disease alone.

The Ben’s Friends Team
