Help Us Light Up Your Community in Teal!

Imagine looking up at the night sky and seeing your local landmark glowing in teal. It stops you in your tracks. It feels hopeful, powerful - like your community is standing with you. For those affected by polycystic kidney disease (PKD), that light means the world. It’s a reminder you're not alone, and that your stories matter.

This PKD Awareness Day - on September 4, 2025 - you can help create that feeling in your own hometown. By helping us apply for landmark lightings, flag raisings, or municipal proclamations, you’ll be part of something bigger: a nationwide effort to shine a light on this often invisible disease.

These public displays don’t just look beautiful - they help spark conversations, raise awareness, and push for the funding and research needed to find better treatments, more support, and - one day - a cure.

We’ll guide you every step of the way. Whether you’re brand new to this or have helped before, your voice can help bring PKD out of the shadows.

Let’s light up Canada in teal and bring hope to thousands of families affected by PKD.
