💜 A Light of Hope at the Bicentennial Tower 💜

Throughout September, the Bicentennial Tower will shine purple in honor of Su***de Prevention Awareness Month. September 1 through September 30, this special lighting display serves as a reminder that hope, support, and connection are always within reach.

We encourage everyone to take a moment to check in on friends, family, and neighbors. Sometimes a simple conversation can make all the difference.

We are proud to support this important cause in partnership with the Su***de Prevention Advisory Board of Erie County and UPMC Western Behavioral Health, helping raise awareness, reduce stigma, and remind our community that no one is alone.
