Our Care Socks are back

A little care goes a long way.

Make a gift of $50 or more to SRNA, and we’ll send you a pair of our limited-edition Care Socks as a thank-you.

Give $50 or more

The 2026 Care Socks: two cream socks with red and teal stripes. One has a circle of dots, the other has dots scattered down the leg.

When you’re living with a rare neuroimmune disorder, questions don’t stop after diagnosis. New questions come up as life changes, and finding answers isn’t always easy.

At SRNA, we help people find information, connect with others who understand, and navigate what comes next. Your gift helps us continue that work.

Give $50 or more, and we’ll send you a pair as our thank-you.

We’ll send your socks to the address you enter in the donation form. Socks can be shipped to U.S. addresses only.

About taxes: Each pair of Care Socks has a fair market value of $20. The rest of your gift is tax-deductible. For example, if you give $100, $80 is tax-deductible. Your receipt will show both amounts.

The story behind the socks

This year, our Care Socks are back with a new design inspired by our Here When You Ask campaign.

These socks tell a story you’re a part of.

The scattered dots represent the questions we carry. The circle is all of us, coming together around them.

We may not have every answer, but no one should have to face these questions alone.

Thank you for being a part of this circle: for helping us keep answering and searching for the answers we don’t yet have.

  • One Care Sock showing the circle of red and teal dots below the striped cuff.
  • One Care Sock showing red and teal dots scattered down the leg.
  • A folded pair of Care Socks with the “Here When You Ask” card that comes with them.

Have a question of your own?

Sometimes questions come up unexpectedly. Some are simple, others can be frightening, and finding information you can trust isn’t always easy.

That’s why we’ve launched our new AI-powered Myelitis Helpline. Ask a question in your own words, any time, and get answers drawn only from SRNA’s website and carefully vetted, trusted sources, never the open internet.

It’s another way we’re making reliable information easier to access, alongside the personal support and resources SRNA continues to provide.

A little something to say thank you

Our Care Socks are a small reminder of the connections we make and the answers we find along the way.

  • Give $50 or more by December 31, 2026, to receive a pair.
  • Give by December 1 for delivery before December 24.
  • Gifts made December 2–31 will receive socks in January.
  • Socks can be shipped to U.S. addresses only.

Thank you for helping SRNA continue to connect people with the information, resources, and community they’re looking for.

Give $50 or more

It’s a question we hear often, and there are plenty of ways to get involved. Whether you want to raise funds, share information, support research, or simply help someone find their way to SRNA, there’s something you can do.
