Are YOU Ready to Help FUEL Global Awareness & DRIVE Support for a Great Cause?

Join St. Louis-based nonprofit AiArthritis (International Foundation for AUTOimmune & AUTOinflammatory Arthritis) for a fun, family-friendly auto-themed awareness event! This August 3rd, we're hosting a Race-A-Thon to DRIVE AUTOimmune & AUTOinflammatory Arthritis Disease Awareness to connect with the local community and expand awareness about our patient-driven programs and resources.

We've come up with a unique, interactive way to highlight our organization's programs and partners -- remote control car races! Attendees will have the chance to race cars, win prizes, and learn more about our work to drive meaningful change for those impacted by AiArthritis diseases.

We aim to educate the world about the main AUTO symptoms that happen regardless of diagnosis (example fatigue, brain fog, varied degrees of elevated temperature) plus the inflammatory arthritis (which also presents and feels different than osteoarthritis). By doing this, we hope to ACCELERATE detection, diagnosis and access to treatments, improve quality of life and chances to achieve remission, and help those without our diseases understand and support the challenges associated with them.

Learn More About AiArthritis

All of AiArthritis' work is driven by patient-identified issues and patient-infused solutions. Through advocacy, education & awareness, and research, AiArthritis has the insight and experience necessary to drive meaningful change for AiArthritis patients.

Patient-led approach

No one can identify what a patient needs most more than those personally impacted by the diseases. So, we find a variety of ways to invite patient voices 'to the table' to ensure we are addressing issues that matter most to them and to give them opportunities to be as involved in our programs as possible. In turn, our community can take pride in knowing they helped develop the programs and resources that ultimately can improve their lives and the lives of 450 million people worldwide!

Global Network philosophy

We collaborate with other organizations, health professionals, and other groups as necessary to make sure the work we do creates the most impact.

Who do we help?

We help those diagnosed, their support network, and the undiagnosed ("Mystery Patients")...because everyone is undiagnosed before they are diagnosed.
