Tennessee Hemophilia & Bleeding Disorders Foundation

Tennessee Hemophilia & Bleeding Disorders Foundation Our Mission: To enhance the lives of those affected by bleeding disorders. An estimated 280,000 males and females live with Von Willebrand disease.

About Blood Disorders
A bleeding disorder is a genetic blood clotting deficiency caused by the absence or inactivity of an essential blood clotting protein, or “factor.” This deficiency causes the body to form unstable blood clots that allow bleeding to continue longer than normal. A person with a bleeding disorder can experience frequent and often spontaneous episodes of prolonged bleeding. The most severe cases can have extensive bleeding into joints, muscles and vital organs, resulting in life-threatening emergencies and crippling long-term complications. Hemophilia and related bleeding disorders, such as Von Willebrand disease, are genetically inherited. However, one in three diagnosed cases of hemophilia results from a spontaneous genetic mutation where there is no family history of abnormal bleeding. Approximately 20,000 people in the United States are affected by Hemophilia, which occurs almost exclusively in males.

Our team had a great week attending NBDF’s Chapter Leadership Seminar in Charlotte, North Carolina this week! It was an energizing opportunity to learn, connect with chapters nationwide, and bring home new ideas to strengthen our work. We were honored to be recognized for 13 years of research support, and we’re so thankful for Phil Gattone and the entire NBDF team for their leadership and commitment to supporting chapters.

We’re excited for the year ahead and grateful for such a meaningful and inspiring CLS!

🍎 What a Blast at Camp Reunion! 🍏

This year’s reunion was such a remarkable experience from making homemade apple cider and apple butter to playing games and reconnecting around the campfire, every moment was filled with laughter and nostalgia.

We paddled canoes, relaxed in hammocks, shot some hoops, infused, and reminisced about the good old camp days that brought us all together.

Here’s to friendship, fun, and the magic of camp that never fades! 🌲🔥🏀🛶💛
