GvHD Day | Know GvHD

This year's campaign

On Tuesday, February 17, 2026, we come together to mark GvHD Day, a global moment to amplify the voices of people living with graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) and those who care for them.

Together through GvHD is a campaign rooted in connection, understanding, and hope. It's about reminding every patient and caregiver affected by GvHD that they are not alone and that support, information, and community are within reach.

Connect.Share.Feel supported.

As part of this year's campaign, we're bringing together a range of supportive resources and peer networks for people affected by GvHD. This includes access to patient support groups, as well as a dedicated WhatsApp group hosted by our patient ambassadors. These supportive, welcoming spaces offer opportunities to connect with others, share experiences, ask questions, and find reassurance from people who truly understand life with GvHD.

Get involved

To help raise awareness of GvHD, we're inviting our community to take part in a simple but powerful activity. Our Know GvHD posters and business cards provide a visible reminder of the support, information, and community that is available for patients and caregivers affected by GvHD.

By distributing these materials across BMT centers, hospitals, clinics, and societies, you help ensure that patients encounter trusted resources at crucial moments in their journey, making it easier for them to access education, connect with others, and feel supported when they need it most.

You can order posters or business cards for your BMT center, hospital, clinic, or society by contacting us at SES_KnowGvHD@ScientificEducationSupport.com. Please let us know the number of A3 posters and business cards you'd like to order and your delivery address – we will be in touch with delivery times.
You can also download the A4 poster, using the link below, and print it on your home printer.
