APDA 2024 NW Optimism Walk

My Personal 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!

As you know, I was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease about a year ago. This has created challenges in managing symptoms, educating myself and my family, and doing all the things that research says can slow the progression of this disease.

Did you know:

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!

I have taken advantage of several programs through the APDA including support groups, a Jazz Lab ensemble, online classes in symptom management and more. The offerings are very high quality and make it easier to learn and adapt to this condition.

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!
