Flag Raising Initiative for Mitochondrial Disease Awareness Month 

As part of the inaugural Mitochondrial Disease Awareness Month, the mitoCommunity is encouraged to bring awareness to those living with mitochondrial disease and MitoCanada in their communities. One meaningful way to do this is by requesting your local municipal building fly the MitoCanada flag during a week or the whole month of September.

If your community does not offer building lightings or proclamation requests, flying the MitoCanada flag is another powerful way to show support and spark conversation.

MitoCanada will connect with local municipalities where members of the mitoCommunity live to coordinate flag-raising opportunities across Canada. If you are interested in leading a flag-raising initiative in your community, please complete the contact form below.
