AACOS Sponsors Annual Food Allergy Awareness Campaign
Asthma & Allergy Associates and Research Center supports the FARE’s Teal Pumpkin Project.® This initiative brings attention to food allergy awareness during Halloween celebration.
Raising Awareness About Food Allergies
The Teal Pumpkin Project® is a national initiative from Food Allergy Research and Education (FARE). It raises awareness of food allergies and promotes a safer, happier Halloween. We encourage households to make non-food treats for trick-or-treaters who need to avoid candy due to food allergies or other reasons. This allows them to still fully take part in the Halloween fun. Participants can show they have non-food treats available by placing a Teal Pumpkin Yard Sign in front of their home on Halloween evening.
Last year, households around the world participated in the Teal Pumpkin Project. This year, join Asthma Allergy Associates in supporting this fantastic initiative! Visit tealpumpkinproject.org to learn more and to download fliers and other campaign materials. “The Teal Pumpkin Project and the Teal Pumpkin Image are trademarks of Food Allergy Research and Education (FARE).”

AACOS Promotes Food Allergy Safety
At Asthma & Allergy Associates, we treat patients with food allergies throughout Colorado. We know the inconvenience and danger of food allergies. This is why we do all we can to promote awareness for both the community and those who cope with food allergies.
Finally, if you or a loved one have a food allergy, give AACOS a call today. Food allergies are serious but they can be treated. Undiagnosed or treated food allergies can pose a serious risk, though, so don’t hesitate to learn more.
