Hello Dear Friends and Family (and even those who don't fit into those categories;) 

I am participating in the Detroit Metro area "Parkinsons Hero Walk" on September 13, one of many fundraising events that are sponsored by the MIchigan Parkinsons Foundation.  The Foundation has done a remarkable job of providing support for the Michigan Parkinson community - from education and exercise, to caregiver support services.  So in this effort, I am reaching out for financial support.  If you find some spare change in the couch, or a stray Bitcoin lying around that you don't need, feel free to press the Donate Now button.  Our team is "Will Walk for Dopamine."  (I'm just doing this for the cool team T-shirt  :-).  Any support is greatly appreciated!

Grateful,

Peter Spata

From MPF:

The revenues from our fundraising events are essential to 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.
