Take ACTION for Psoriatic Disease in Philadelphia
PHILADELPHIA, PA, UNITED STATES, September 16, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Each year, the National Psoriasis Foundation (NPF) invites the community of people impacted by psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis to join Take ACTION for Psoriatic Disease to connect, celebrate, and unite to raise critical funds to drive efforts to cure psoriatic disease and improve the lives of all those impacted.
This year’s Philadelphia event will be held at the Philadelphia Zoo on September 21. Anyone who lives with psoriatic disease or supports a friend or family member is invited. Jacqueline Nachmias, the local Take ACTION Ambassador, will give a speech about her journey with psoriasis at the event.
“I joined Take ACTION this year to raise awareness of psoriatic disease, notably among younger patients like myself and the other individuals in NPF’s Youth Ambassador program,” said Jacqueline.
Take ACTION for Psoriatic Disease is a nationwide movement to educate, advocate, motivate, and celebrate the community of more than 8 million people in the U.S. who live with psoriatic disease.
“All over the country, communities are coming together to honor and recognize the progress toward a cure made possible by NPF donors and fundraisers,” says Leah M. Howard, J.D., the president and CEO of NPF. “This community deserves to be celebrated, and Take ACTION is the absolute best way to do that.”
This year’s event will be a community gathering for the entire NPF family. It will include psoriatic disease education, an inspiring program, and entertainment for the whole family.
“I hope to see you on September 21 at the Philadelphia Zoo,” says Kristin Brooks, associate director of field development & national peer-to-peer initiatives for NPF. “We have a great morning planned, and everyone is welcome.”
