In a symbolic gesture of awareness and support, Herencia joins the commemoration of Rare Disease Day on February 29th, by adorning its iconic windmills with a palette of colors representing the diversity of these rare conditions.
The aim of this initiative is twofold: on one hand, it seeks to raise awareness among the population about the existence and complexity of rare diseases; on the other hand, it aims to promote solidarity towards those who suffer from them, emphasizing the importance of timely diagnosis and access to appropriate treatments.
Rare diseases, often overlooked due to their low prevalence, affect a small number of people compared to the general population. However, the impact on the lives of patients and their families is significant, with frequent challenges in seeking specialized medical attention and comprehensive support.
By coloring its windmills, Herencia not only symbolizes hope and diversity, but also becomes a spokesperson for a cause that requires greater visibility and understanding. Through actions like these, the community shows solidarity with those affected, while emphasizing the need for more research and resources to address these diseases.
This lighting ceremony serves as a reminder that, although rare, these diseases are a daily reality for many and deserve the same recognition and effort in seeking solutions as any other more common medical condition. Through this gesture, Herencia reaffirms its commitment to the well-being of all its citizens, without exception.
