Raise Awareness

Meet Four People Helping Us Move Toward a Cure

Group at Moving Day Walk

In 2023, Moving Day, A Walk for Parkinson’s, Parkinson’s Revolution and Parkinson’s Champions raised a record-breaking $8.8 million to advance research, improve access to care and provide life-changing resources to people with PD and their loved ones.

Meet four fundraisers and volunteers who inspire us:

“We love Moving Day. We all think the Parkinson’s Foundation is important because they have so much to offer people with Parkinson’s. When someone new comes to the gym, the first thing I tell them is to connect with the Foundation and use their resources. We are so happy we can help raise money to support the Parkinson’s Foundation.”
