Who are the APDA Transformers? We are dedicated members of the American Parkinson Disease Association (APDA) staff who work every day to improve lives affected by Parkinson's disease (PD) -- and now we're stepping up our commitment to the PD community by participating in the APDA Long Island Optimism Walk. We are personally raising crucial funds and awareness and will be lacing up on sneakers on September 28 to walk with our PD community.
We need your help. Simply make an easy online donation, join our team and walk with us, and/or spread the word about the event. Every donation leads to a brighter future for those living with Parkinson's.
Please join us in the fight against PD today. We have set a lofty fundraising goal and we hope to beat it because we know that every dollar raised makes a difference. The more funds we can raise for the APDA Optimism Walk, the more people we can help in the local PD community, and that's more important now than ever.
Need some encouragement?
- Every six minutes someone is diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.
- Funds raised enable APDA to continue providing local education, information, and support to those touched by PD in our community and fund scientific research into the causes, prevention, treatments, and ultimately the cure.
- The more funds we raise, the more people we can help!
You can make an easy online donation by clicking on the Roster tab, selecting a team member, and then just click on the 'Support Me' button on their fundraising page. You will automatically receive a confirmation email and we will be notified by email of your support.
Thank you in advance for your generosity. Together we are truly making a difference for those in need!
- The APDA Transformers Team
