Thank you for visiting my Fundraising Page for the APDA Optimism Walk.
Our team is named after our patriarch, Thor Hatteberg, who lived with Parkinson’s Disease (PD) back in the 1950s and 1960s. Several of his descendants have had PD or are currently living with it.
We have found APDA very helpful in connecting with others in the Parkinson’s Community, to discuss experiences, symptoms, medications, treatments, doctors, and support issues. It is so important to know that no one has to face the challenges alone; there is help available.
I’m walking to make a difference for the Parkinson’s disease (PD) community, and I’d love your support. Every six minutes, someone is diagnosed with PD. The funds we raise will help the American Parkinson Disease Association (APDA) provide:
- Local education, information, and support for people impacted by PD
- Nationwide virtual programs to keep everyone connected, no matter where they live
- Scientific research into the causes, prevention, treatments, and ultimately a cure
It’s quick and easy to give - click the "Support Me" or "Donate Now" button. You’ll receive an automatic confirmation email.
Any amount you give will bring us one step closer to better treatments, more support, and hope for the future.
Thank you for your generosity. Together, we’re making a real difference.
