Columbus, Ohio Ready to Take ACTION for Psoriatic Disease

COLUMBUS, OH, UNITED STATES, September 30, 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 Columbus event will be held at the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium on October 6, 2024. Anyone who lives with psoriatic disease or supports a friend or family member is invited. Michelle Zimmerman, the local Take ACTION Ambassador, will speak about her journey with psoriasis at the event.

“I have now been tacking psoriasis for 36 years, and the research and treatment options have come so far since I started this journey,” said Michelle. “I am fundraising for Take ACTION to help further our understanding of psoriasis & improve access to care, so kids don't go through what I did.”

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 October 6 at the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium,” 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.”
