Gifing a Voice to Hemophilia
We send over 10 billion GIFs to each other every day. Yet virtually, none of those GIFs portray people with hemophilia in a positive light. Through collaboration with actual people with hemophilia and their caregivers, we created a wide range of new hemophilia GIFs that are honest, supportive, and uplifting.

This GIF series would not be possible without the efforts of our contributors. We worked with a diverse group of people of all ages with hemophilia as well as caregivers, and they helped us conceive these ideas. We thank and credit these individuals for their participation, creativity, and hard work.
