Herber's Fundraising Page
I need YOUR help...
I was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease in October 2019. To help minimize my symptoms, I increased my exercise regime, becoming a true Peloton fanboy, riding, stretching, and strength training as well as taking up boxing and stand-up paddleboarding. In January of this year, I underwent Deep Brain Stimulation, which helps to extend the medication benefits.
The short story is that this chronic disease slowly robs people of both voluntary and involuntary functions. It's as much a psychological test as a physical one. And the APDA has been there to help, providing learning opportunities, critical research and various support groups. That's why I'm kindly asking for your help.
This is my Fundraising Page for the APDA Optimism Walk - please help me reach my goal by making an easy online gift today!
Need some encouragement?
- Every six minutes someone is diagnosed with Parkinson's disease (PD).
- Funds raised enable the American Parkinson Disease Association (APDA) to continue providing local education, information, and support, as well as critical nationwide virtual programs to keep everyone supported and connected no matter where they live. You will also help fund scientific research into the causes, prevention, treatments, and ultimately a cure.
- The more funds we raise, the more people we can help!
Today can be a great day for us both, and for the PD community! Simply make an easy online donation by clicking on the 'Support Me/Donate Now" button. Any amount is appreciated. You will automatically receive a confirmation email and I will be notified by email of your support.
Thank you so much for your generosity. Together, we are truly making a difference for those in need!
