After having to cancel its fundraiser in 2020 due to Covid, People Against Leigh Syndrome (PALS), with chairs Rosie Murphy and Peyton Jones, hosted a record-breaking fundraiser at the Armadillo Palace. More than $200,000 was raised from the event, which was the most well attended fundraiser in PALS’ history. Supporters dressed in green – PALS’ signature color – and enjoyed music from Max Flinn, food from Goode Company, and auctions. Leigh Syndrome is a pediatric-onset, progressive, and fatal neurological disease closely linked to Parkinson's Disease.
