Kim Jacobsen’s Fundraising Page

I need YOUR help...

Thank you for visiting my Fundraising Page for the APDA Optimism Walk!  Please help me reach my goal by making an easy online gift today!

I was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease at the age of 51 in 2020.  Since then I've made it my personal mission to raise awareness about living well with this disease, to stop the stigma of living with Parkinson's and to raise money for better treatments and a cure.  

Need some encouragement? 

  • Every six minutes someone is diagnosed with Parkinson's disease (PD).
  • Funds raised enable the American Parkinson Disease Association (APDA) to continue providing local education, information, and support, as well as critical nationwide virtual programs to keep everyone supported and connected no matter where they live. You will also help fund scientific research into the causes, prevention, treatments, and ultimately a cure.
  • The more funds we raise, the more people we can help!

Today can be a great day for us both, and for the PD community! Simply make an easy online donation by clicking on the 'Support Me/Donate Now" button. Any amount is appreciated. You will automatically receive a confirmation email and I will be notified by email of your support.

Thank you so much for your generosity. Love and Good Health to you all!
