TUBB3 Variant Awareness Day

March 16th

TUBB3 Awareness Day Ribbon Date

Why March 16th?

Every year we celebrate TUBB3 Variant Awareness Day on March 16th. This date (3-16) was chosen because of Tubulin-beta III (3) which is located on the 16th chromosome (16).
TUBB3 Variant Awareness Day is all about spreading more knowledge and information to create more awareness of TUBB3 related disorders both in the medical field and in our communities. TUBB3 variants are an Ultra Rare Disorder, there is currently very little information known, and we hope in the future to change that and create more knowledge and awareness for all individuals and families affected by TUBB3 variants! Every year on March 16th, there are TUBB3 variant families all over the world who are sharing their stories and raising awareness of this ultra-rare disorder.

Every shirt does more than show support — it fuels the TUBB3 Foundation’s mission to advance research, empower families, and shine a light on the impact of TUBB3 variants. When you wear or share this merch, you’re helping turn rare into recognized and giving the TUBB3 community a stronger voice. It’s a simple way to spark conversations, spread understanding, and stand with those affected. A small purchase can make a meaningful difference. Let your gear tell the world that awareness matters!
