Lupus and Fibromyalgia Awareness
Our mission is to provide education, support services, and encouragement to empower and uplift those living with lupus and fibromyalgia in an effort to help them and their families face the challenges of these incurable, debilitating illnesses.
DMV Plate Initiative
💜 We’re Too Close to Give Up Now!
The Social Butterflies Foundation’s DMV Lupus Awareness License Plate Campaign is closer than ever to becoming a reality — and we need your help to make it happen! It won’t cost you a dime to support, and it’s a simple way to stand with the lupus and fibromyalgia community.
Too many Virginians living with lupus and fibromyalgia are suffering in silence. This plate will help raise awareness, inspire hope, and provide vital support for thrivers and their families.
