11th Annual Purple Ribbon Awards Gala ~ March 21, 2026
During this event we honor the doctors, volunteers, advocates, and lupus patients who strengthen the fabric of care across our state every single day. The event centers on patients' journeys to help raise awareness and resources for our free bilingual (English/Spanish) patient Education and Support Programs. These free programs include virtual lupus health conferences with trusted clinical experts, virtual and in-person monthly support groups that protect mental health and allow lupus patients a safe place to talk about their issues, and one-to-one navigation with our Lupus Health Navigator, so that patients can stay informed, empowered, and connected to care.
You will also hear from our 2026 Face of Lupus, Emmitt Henderson III. He is an amazing lupus patient and advocate and you don't want to miss hearing his story.
Your ticket price includes Champagne welcome, passed hors d'oeuvres, plated dinner plus wine and beer. The evening will also include a Silent and Live Auction and plenty of time to mingle with lupus patients and other supporters.
Don't miss this inspiring evening!
