You might be familiar with Pi Day, but for St. Louisans, the day is used to celebrate all things 3-1-4! In honor of Pi Day coming up, we thought it would be a good time to introduce you to another upcoming event in the STL Community that we are excited to participate in.
Give STL Day is occurring in May and we are so excited to partake. This will be the second year we have participated and we cannot wait to support our STL community members! The MGA is dedicated to supporting MG patients in their own communities, and we are always looking for innovative ways to celebrate our patients.
We need your help to make the most out of the 24-hour event! Read about Give STL Day below and learn how you can help the MGA!
