The Jack McGovern Coats' Disease Foundation is proud to join forces with millions around the world living with a rare disease to celebrate Rare Disease Day®!
Hosted on February 28, 2025, Rare Disease Day is an annual awareness day dedicated to elevating public understanding of rare diseases and calling attention to the special challenges people face.
Coats' Disease is a rare disease. There is no cure, but we are diligently working to change that! Your support will allow us to raise awareness among pediatricians and physicians to help them recognize the warning signs of Coats' Disease, leading to earlier and more accurate diagnoses. The faster a patient is diagnosed, the greater the chance of saving their eyesight!
The Jack McGovern Coats' Disease Foundation is encouraging all Coats' Disease patients to use Rare Disease Day as a way to raise awareness of Coats' Disease and showcase how strong, determined, and brave Coats' patients are!
