My grandmother Carolyn Jewel Wyatt suffered with Parkinson's disease and this cause is near and dear to my heart. The revenues from these fundraising events are essentialto help ensure that no person with Parkinson’s in Michigan and their families are without quality care and support.The need for MPF’s respite care program has increased twenty-fold, providing $10,000 to families in 2018 to more than $200,000 in 2023. Over 13,500 individuals served through MPF exercise classes and 2,116 served through educational programs statewide. To date, MPF has been able to say “YES” to all that need their help with support from individuals like you.
Clarence was also affected by Parkinson's. He became my family through marriage and he treated me like his own. He once said "You never seen a ugly Sunflower ? have you?"
