This is what community feels like. 💚
For Amelia, Arthritis Foundation events are a place where she feels supported, understood and surrounded by people who get it.

At this year’s Freedom of Movement Gala, Amelia and her family will share a glimpse into their journey, the challenges they have faced, the strength they have found and the hope they carry for what comes next.

She is the heart behind our mission and why the Arthritis Foundation invests in vital research, education, and resources.

Join us on October 17 and help us create a future where children like Amelia can live without the limits of arthritis.
