PHA Events

Every year, there are more than 60 events taking place across the country to raise much-needed funds to support the PH community. Some events are hosted by PHA, and others are hosted by members in the community. However, every event brings together patients, caregivers and medical professionals to support one another in our fight against PH. Please join us in supporting the PH community by participating in an upcoming event near you!  Interested in hosting an event? Contact events@phassociation.org.
