When you can’t breathe, nothing else matters. This simple yet profound truth encompasses the work of the American Lung Association (ALA) and drives the mission behind PuroAir’s advanced air purification technology. That’s why PuroAir is proud to announce its partnership with the American Lung Association. Together, we aim to support education, advocacy, and breakthroughs in research to improve air quality and lung health across the nation.
Our combined efforts are dedicated not only to ensuring clean air policies but also to helping families breathe easier in their own homes. Because breathing shouldn’t be a luxury, for anyone.
What Does the American Lung Association Do?
For over a century, the American Lung Association has been a leader in the battle for lung health and clean air. Their mission touches countless lives through initiatives focused on education, advocacy, and medical research. But what does this look like in practice?
1. Advocacy for Cleaner Air Policies
The ALA fights for legislation that protects the air we all share. From pushing for stricter pollution standards to combatting the effects of climate change, their advocacy efforts are crucial in ensuring that everyone has access to breathable, safe air. For example, their State of the Air report (link to State of the Air Report blog once published) provides annual insights into air quality across the United States, educating communities and policymakers alike.
2. Supporting Families and Individuals
The ALA provides essential resources to those suffering from lung diseases like asthma, COPD, and lung cancer. Their programs, like Freedom from Smoking, equip individuals with tools to take control of their health and improve their quality of life.
3. Funding Groundbreaking Research
With millions invested in lung health research, the American Lung Association has played a critical role in advancing treatments for respiratory diseases as well as providing valuable data to help drive change from policy makers. This research has been instrumental in bringing innovative solutions to light, creating hope for millions.
How Does PuroAir Complement This Mission?
While the American Lung Association works on public policy and research, PuroAir focuses on protecting and purifying the air inside our homes and businesses. Together, these efforts form a holistic approach to clean, breathable air for all. Here’s how PuroAir complements ALA’s mission:
1. Quality Air Purification Products
PuroAir’s purifiers are engineered to filter up to 99.9% of dust, allergens, pet dander, smoke and more* For families living with asthma or allergies, clean indoor air isn’t just a comfort; it’s a necessity.
2. Promoting Education and Research on Air Quality
PuroAir doesn’t just provide solutions; we empower our customers with knowledge through detailed insights on air quality and its impact on health. Like the ALA, PuroAir believes that awareness is the first step toward change. For example, we recently partnered with SleepScore Labs to test how clean air can improve sleep for those dealing with allergies. Additionally, PuroAir supported a MIT study completed by Dr. Ludovica Gazze, Associate Professor in Economics that illustrated how air purifiers can reduce the particulate matter (PM 2.5) inside homes by more than half. These studies have provided valuable insights, but they also highlight the need for larger-scale research on indoor air quality and the subsequent health benefits of breathing clean air.
Each year the American Lung Association publishes their State of the Air Report, providing key research and data about the quality of air across America. PuroAir has witnessed firsthand how the air quality of certain communities has been adversely affected by weather conditions, pollution, wildfires, and more. We recently published a blog post (LINK HERE) highlighting our key takeaways from this year’s report including the critical need for policy change and the need for clean air for all.
3. Social Responsibility
At the heart of this partnership lies a shared belief in collective responsibility. Healthy air shouldn’t be exclusive to some; it’s a fundamental human right. PuroAir is dedicated to bringing clean air to our community members in need. We have donated purifiers and funding to the LA Wildfire Relief, schools, community organizations, and participate in Giving Tuesday each year. By combining innovation with advocacy, we’re committed to protecting the air you breathe, both indoors and out.
How Will This Partnership Drive Impact?
PuroAir and the American Lung Association are united by a shared mission, and together, our partnership will amplify efforts to create measurable change in air quality and lung health.
