Get Involved

Our volunteers are the heart of RDC. Without their dedication, we would not be able to spread rare disease awareness, create meaningful opportunities, and support the community the way we do today. Learn how to become an RDC volunteer and make a difference on this page.

Interested in leading a group to carry out RDC’s mission of spreading rare disease awareness and advocacy in your local community? Start a chapter in your area today! Starting a chapter takes time, dedication, and strong leadership and collaboration skills. Not every application will be approved, so make sure you are ready to commit before registering to start an RDC chapter.

Support RDC by donating to Mission 7K, our initiative to raise awareness and drive action for the 7,000 known rare diseases affecting millions worldwide. Every contribution helps us expand outreach, provide resources, and empower students to make a difference. Join us in bringing visibility to rare diseases — your donation fuels our mission.
