There is an opportunity for everyone—to sponsor, attend, organize, host, or donate—to help GLA create real change in the battle against Lyme disease.

Global Lyme Alliance events range from our signature galas, experiential events, charity endurance programs, sporting events, and grassroots initiatives.

View all upcoming events, including fundraising, education and conference
on below!

 

Our team is humbled by all the wonderful people in the Lyme community who want to help GLA achieve its mission–to fund the most promising, ground-breaking research, expand education initiatives, and increase awareness for Lyme and other tick-borne diseases.

The events benefitting GLA across the country are driven by two goals— raise money to support GLA’s mission and offer an amazing experience. Here are a few initiatives that some of our wonderful supporters have accomplished.
