THIS YEAR'S THEME: "ACCELERATE TO ELIMINATE HEP B"

Expected special guests: Dr. Samuel So, Founder of the Asian Liver Center, SF Supervisor Joel Engardio, and more

Over this past year, SF Hep B Free has accelerated our work to increase the amount of community events, the types of communities we serve, increase our media prescence and devoted ourselves to efforts with health systems that could affect thousands of patients.

Inspired by the World Hepatitis Alliance's 2024 World Hepatitis Summit, we've encapsulated this year's gala with the theme "Accelerate to Eliminate Hep B."

With early screening, prevention, and care, hepatitis B and its associated liver cancer can be prevented, treated and eliminated. Will you join us in the fight?

WHY HEPATITIS B?

1 in 12 Asian American & Pacific Islander immigrant adults are chronically infected with hepatitis B.
2 out of 3 people don't know they have hepatitis B.
Hepatitis B is the leading cause of liver cancer in the entire world. There is no cure, but there is a treatment that can help you manage your condition.
With simple testing, vaccination and early treatment we can beat hepatitis B.

Your purchase of a ticket makes our education and screening possible and gets us one step closer to winning the fight against hepatitis B and liver cancer.

Help us build a Hep B Free Bay Area.
