About the event
The MG Awareness Day will be an educational and interactive experience that reflects the many ways that MG affects daily living and strategies for taking control. The objective is to:
- Raise awareness about the impact of MG for the general public
- Educate people diagnosed with MG about treatment options and healthy lifestyle
The atmosphere will embody an "edu-tainment" model with engaging activities, empowerment messaging, social interaction and vendors/partners providing information and solutions.
** This is also an opportunity for the community to get FREE health screenings as part of a holistic lifestyle. We want attendees to take advantage of FREE health screenings, games, educational materials and FREE food. Everyone MUST register for the respective city of their choice.

This is an opportunity to connect with others diagnosed with myasthenia gravis, learn about treatments and wellness options. Learn about research opportunities.
For those who don’t have myasthenia gravis, we invite you to take part in our MyMGLife Challenge. Work your way through six stations that give you an up close look into what it FEELS like to have myasthenia gravis. This is a truly engaging activity.
This event is FREE for attendees and does not require you to fundraise. We want you to simply come out, learn and enjoy yourself with the games, food and silent auction. Bring your family, friends, co-workers, etc. as we will have somethings for everyone. Help us spread the word.
