The Lone Star Chapter of the National Hemophilia Foundation serves the bleeding disorders community of South Texas. We are based in Houston and our area includes McAllen, Corpus Christi, San Antonio, Austin, and El Paso. Our vision is very simple. We exist to ensure that every South Texan living with a bleeding disorder has what he/she needs to manage his/her medical condition successfully. This involves education/support groups, scholarships, financial assistance for emergencies, and advocacy initiatives.
This site is designed to keep our community updated on what is happening throughout the chapter. Be sure to check out the upcoming events and calendar while you are here.
