ABOUT PORTUGAL. THE MAN:
Over the past decade, Portugal. The Man has established themselves as one of rock’s most prized possessions and a live performance phenomenon; having rocked over 1,600 shows and a storied reputation as festival favorites.
Originally heralding from Alaska, the Portland-based band soared to new heights in 2017 with the release of their now RIAA certified-Platinum album, Woodstock. The album was marked by the astounding success of their infectious single, “Feel It Still,” which earned the group a plethora of new accolades – including a GRAMMY for “Best Pop Duo/Group Performance,” a 7x RIAA Platinum certification, a record setting 26-week residency at #1, which is the longest running #1 in Alternative Radio History.
Alongside the shine of their myriad of musical accomplishments lies the group’s long-standing passion for social justice. Throughout their career, the band has consistently exemplified how to deeply commit to both artistry and activism. This ultimately inspired them to officially launch PTM Foundation in 2020, focused on universal issues related to human rights, community health, and the environment, with an emphasis on causes directly impacting Indigenous Peoples, including Alaska Native Health (providing the highest quality of health services for Alaska Native people) and Seeding Sovereignty (radicalizing and disrupting colonized spaces through land, body, food sovereignty work and more).
Portugal. The Man have also partnered with an array of organizations such as National Coalition Against Censorship, The Skatepark Project (helping communities build public skate parks for youth in underserved communities), March for Our Lives (Gun Reform), Keep Oregon Well (Mental Health), and Protect Our Winters (Climate Change), to name just a few. In 2022, the band furthered their passion for activism when they launched PTM’s NIGHT OUT initiative – supporting disabled fans requiring ADA access.
ABOUT FRANCES CHANGED MY LIFE:
In 2021, John and Zoe’s daughter, Frances Gourley was diagnosed with a one in a billion genetic disease called DHDDS. Kids with DHDDS and other rare, neurodegenerative diseases experience the symptoms of mental and physical decline that are usually associated with diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Their debilitating effects include confusion, seizures, uncontrollable movements, and even dementia in very young kids.
70% of rare diseases are diagnosed in childhood and more than 90% of rare diseases including Frances’ are without an FDA approved treatment. This means that even with great healthcare plans, there’s no actual treatment protocol for insurance to cover. It’s up to parents & families to seek out and independently fund research and development of treatments, medicines, and therapies they hope will save their kids’ lives.
John and Zoe, like many other parents of rare diseases, are in an urgent race against the clock to help save their daughter’s life and prevent further deterioration of her mental and physical capacities while they desperately search for a cure.
Your support will help them fund research and development of breakthrough therapies that will lead to life-saving treatments for Frances and the 150M kids around the world living with rare diseases.
