For many people living with autoimmune or chronic illness, the path to diagnosis and care is long, confusing, and isolating. In BIPOC communities, this experience is magnified. Symptoms are dismissed. Care is culturally disconnected. Support is scarce. And years can pass before anyone finally listens.
The AIP BIPOC Network exists to change that.
We help individuals and families find care that truly sees them, while also pushing for systemic change so our communities aren’t left behind. Our mission is to improve the quality of life in BIPOC communities through culturally grounded support, advocacy, and connection, because no one should have to navigate chronic illness alone.
We believe real change happens when people and systems work in harmony, and your Giving Tuesday donation fuels that work.
Your Giving Tuesday gift directly strengthens five core programs that support individuals and transform the systems around them.
1. The AIP BIPOC Community

Giving Tuesday is a global day of generosity that inspires people to support causes building a more just and compassionate world. For communities navigating autoimmune and chronic illness, especially in BIPOC populations where care is often delayed, dismissed, or culturally disconnected, this day is an opportunity to help close gaps that have existed for far too long.
When you give to The AIP BIPOC Network, you help:
🟡 Expand culturally grounded autoimmune and chronic illness support
🟡 Increase access to prevention education and trusted information
🟡 Strengthen pathways to care through navigation and community partnerships
🟡 Ensure lived experience is represented in research, advocacy, and public health
🟡 Build a future where diagnosis, treatment, and support are more equitable and inclusive
Your Giving Tuesday contribution is more than a donation, it is an investment in connection, care, and community-powered health equity.
