Hemophilia and von Willebrand disease are rare bleeding disorders that impact more than 3,600 Wisconsin families. They face many challenges — psychosocial, financial, and physical. GLHF’s mission is to educate, support and advocate for the bleeding disorders community of Wisconsin. Our vision is a life without limits for people and families living with a bleeding disorder. DRINK LOCAL. Green Bay bartenders showcase their signature Bloody Mary recipes while guests enjoy beer chasers, appetizers and vote for their favorite Bloody Mary! Unfortunately, in 2020 and 2021 we had to cancel this event due to COVID. But this year we’re back and in-person! Learn more including some of this year’s contestants! GIVE LOCAL. Proceeds from Green Bay’s Best Bloody helps support programs like Camp Klotty Pine – a camp hosted by GLHF for children living with a bleeding disorder; Family Camp; the Wisconsin Bleeding Disorders Conference; Wisconsin Legislative Day; educational scholarships; emergency patient financial assistance; and more.
