About Our Event

Held during the Scientific and Community Summits, the evening brought together individuals affected by Telomere Biology Disorders (TBDs), families, advocates, clinicians, and researchers to celebrate the people and progress that move our mission forward.

In their favorite, fanciest, and most fun boots and jeans, attendees came together for an evening of dinner, recognition, music, and connection. The awards program honored outstanding community members and their contributions to the TBD community, while recognition of Team Telomere’s research grantees highlighted the work advancing our understanding of these complex disorders.

The silent auction and 50/50 raffle offered opportunities to support Team Telomere’s mission, helping sustain patient and family support, education, advocacy, and research. We are grateful to the donors who contributed auction items and to everyone who participated.
