'Pink Shirt Day is one of 16 events, charities and non-profit causes that are important to communities in BC, that are being amplified with the Northern Lights Display this month.
Porphyrias represent 8 of more than 6,000 rare diseases!
While every disease is different, there are some things we have in common:
