Welcome to the Community Corner

National Osteoporosis Foundation's Community Corner

Welcome to the National Osteoporosis Foundation's (NOF) Community Corner. We appreciate your interest in organizing an event to create awareness of osteoporosis and helping NOF make a difference in fighting osteoporosis and meeting our mission.

In the U.S., one in two women and one in four men will experience an osteoporosis related fracture. Think about all the people in your life and how many of them could be affected by this disease at some point. Your efforts to raise awareness -- as well as raise funds to help NOF meet its mission -- is also helping so many of the people you care about. Working together we can realize NOF's vision: to make bone health a reality and lifelong priority for all individuals -- children and adults, men and women.

The Community Corner has the resources you need to help you put your enthusiasm and creativity into action and coordinate an informative, fundraising event. This outreach will encourage people to be aware of their bone health and take action. Here's a list of the sections included in this corner that can help you get going:
