APDA 2025 Iowa Optimism Walk

My Personal Fundraising Page

I need YOUR help...
I am walking in honor of Gail and her mom Leora, who were both diagnosed seven years ago. What we have learned on this journey is that many symptoms of Parkinson's disease are not evident to others. While their progression has been slow, it is becoming increasingly challenging. We hope and pray that research will lead to better treatment to slow or stop the progression of this disease for our family, and for others.
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!

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. Together, we are truly making a difference for those in need!
