Immune Deficiency Foundation's Blue Jeans for Healthy Genes raises funds to support vital research, education and advocacy for people living with immunodeficiency diseases. IDF volunteers visit plasma centers nationwide, share their stories and thank the donors for their incredible gift of life-saving plasma. “Hanging Up Jeans” campaign helps acknowledge the importance of plasma donors, encourages more people to become regular plasma donors and raises funds for IDF. Creating awareness about primary immunodeficiency diseases is essential to the program. If you think your company, school, organization or club would like to help message me, visit www.primaryimmune.org or call IDF at 1-800-296-4433. There are 2 ways to participate, either by hosting a Healthy Genes Day or through the Hanging up Jeans Program.
Wearing Jeans
The project is simple, easy to host and a great way for your organization to become involved in a
meaningful task. Blue Jeans for Healthy Genes Day is a designated day where adults are asked to
pay money for the chance to wear jeans and join the fight against primary immunodeficiency diseases.
All participants receive a Blue Jeans sticker to show their support and to raise awareness of primary
immunodeficiency diseases. All money raised goes directly to IDF to fund research, education and
advocacy.
IDF will thank all participating individuals with written acknowledgements. All involved organizations
will receive a certificate, suitable for framing and special recognition in IDF's newsletter and Web site.
Hanging up Jeans
An alternative to the traditional Blue Jeans for Healthy Genes Day is Hanging up Blue Jeans. This
program is easily implemented in nearly all types of settings, but works particularly well in stores,
plasma centers, healthcare facilities, libraries and other places where there is high foot traffic. It is a
great way to become involved and support the IDF.
IDF supplies paper cutouts to be placed near the cashier, receptionist or main lobby. All customers,
patrons or visitors are asked to support IDF by buying a cutout for one dollar. When supporters pay
for cutouts, they personalize it by writing their name on it. Then the cutouts are posted in a prominent
place such as a wall or window.

I was born with hypogammaglobulinemia, which is a primary immune deficiency of the main antibody defense against bacteria. I hope to raise some awareness of PIDD and I'm a volunteer for the Immune Deficiency Foundation (www.primaryimmune.org). Treatment of my immune deficiency involves antibody replacement therapy which I get every day and is made possible by plasma donors. Early diagnosis & treatment of primary immune deficiency is essential to prevent recurring infections from doing permanent damage or causing death, yet few people have any awareness of PIDD at all.
The 10 Warning Signs of Primary Immune Deficiency
1). Eight or more new ear infections within one year.
2). Two or more serious sinus infections within 1 year.
3). Two or more months on antibiotics with little effect.
4). Two or more pneumonias within 1 year.
5). Failure of an infant to gain weight or grow normally.
6). Recurrent, deep skin or organ abscesses.
7). Persistent thrush in mouth or elsewhere on skin, after age 1.
8). Need for intravenous antibiotics to clear infections.
9). Two or more deep-seated infections such as sepsis, meningitis or cellulitis.
10). A family history of primary immune deficiency.
