Compassion, Education, Knowledge Making a Difference in the Lives of Nevada's Bleeding Disorder Community

The Govenor of Nevada has proclaimed November 1, 2008 Renee Paper Day!

On November 1, 2008 our community will come together to celebrate the life and pay tribute to our founder, Renee Paper. Renee started the Hemophilia Foundation of Nevada out of her home in 1990. She saw the tremendous need for comprehensive services for those with bleeding disorder throughout this state. She was a dynamic personality who knew she had to be focused and add a little “chutzpah” to accomplish her goals. Through persistent dedication and purpose she became a champion to all those in need. She fought the good fight for many in our community (and around the world) and her strength and vision continue to influence those who were touched by her dynamic personality.

It is important for us to unite for this very special event on November 1st. We all have a chance to honor a special person who was and continues to be an icon in the bleeding disorders community. Young and old, long time resident and newcomer, all are called together to share in this special moment in our Nevada history
