On May 30th, from 8 PM to midnight, the Burlington Pier will be bathed in a radiant teal glow. This illuminating event is more than just a beautiful spectacle; it’s a powerful statement of support and awareness for Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP), a rare and devastating brain disorder.
Understanding PSP
Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) is a neurodegenerative disease that affects movement, balance, speech, vision, and swallowing. Its impact on individuals and their families is profound, often leading to significant disability. Currently, there is no cure for PSP, making awareness and research funding crucial.
Why Teal?
Teal is the designated color for PSP awareness, symbolizing the hope and strength of those affected by this condition. By lighting up the Burlington Pier in teal, we aim to bring attention to the challenges faced by PSP patients and their loved ones, fostering a community of support and understanding.
