BC Place glows purple for ALS Awareness Month

June 1st, 2019

BC Place will glow purple for ALS Awareness Month on Saturday, June 1st.

It is a fatal and rapidly progressive neuromuscular disease, which robs a person of their ability to speak, walk, eat or breathe – trapping an active mind in a deteriorating, immobilized body.
