Here's just a small sampling of different ways we are raising global pulmonary hypertension awareness and making the world #phaware.

NASDAQ broadcasts a custom #phaware PSA on their tower - the largest screen in the world. Additionally, 2500+ NYC Taxi Cabs play #phaware PSA nearly 1,000,000 times for PH Awareness Month. Furthering our mantra of "any screen anywhere!" See it on NASDAQ's vine.


MANI UP FOR A CURE

#ManiUpForACure for PH Awareness Month.  

#ManiUpForACure for PH Awareness Month.  

ManiUpForACure is a large-scale community engagement challenge designed to kick start PH conversations (especially in men) during Pulmonary Hypertension Awareness Month. Men, women, and children will be asked to "mani-up" for the month of November. Paint your nails Periwinkle Blue, which symbolizes the blue lips of patients suffering from this chronic lung disease who cannot get enough oxygen into their circulatory system. This will create the opportunity to engage in conversation and share PH and CTEPH related stories with inquiring minds.  Submit your photo(s) via the phaware365 mobile app or post on social media using the hashtag #maniupforacure. Check out our #ManiUp gallery.
