The Parkinson’s Foundation will host its 3rd Annual Day of Giving on September 25 to help fund the critical research needed to combat Parkinson’s disease. “On this special day, supporters like you will have the chance to help us move forward on our essential work in research, care, education, and more,” said John L. Lehr, President and CEO of the Parkinson’s Foundation. “Every six minutes, another American is diagnosed with PD — so we must keep up our work for a cure.”
Parkinson’s disease is now recognized as the fastest-growing neurological disorder in the world, with 90,000 new cases diagnosed each year in the United States alone. Worldwide, millions of families are affected by the challenges of living with Parkinson’s, from motor symptoms such as tremors and stiffness to non-motor symptoms that impact quality of life. This growing crisis makes the need for research, patient care, and education more urgent than ever.
By participating in the Day of Giving, you are joining a community committed to making a difference, whether through funding innovative scientific discoveries, supporting care programs that improve daily life for people with Parkinson’s, or expanding education to ensure families and caregivers never face the journey alone.
You can support the Foundation’s mission today by visiting their secure donation page: Give Now. Every contribution, no matter the size, brings us closer to a world without Parkinson’s.
