With a strong family history of Parkinson disease, I actively support the community to overcome the challenges of day-to-day living with this disease. I volunteer at the foundation, mentor the newly diagnosed and participate in clinical trials as we search for a cure.
The revenues from our fundraising 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 $283,000 and 13,885 hours to 176 families in 2024. Over 13,500 individuals served through MPF exercise classes and 2,116 served through educational programs statewide. To date, we have been able to say “YES” to all that need our help with support from individuals like you.
