Fighting Parkinson's

By Melissa Ferabend

I've joined the fight against Parkinson's

Join the fight and fundraise to suppport the Parkinson's community.

Please help me by making a tax deductible donationhelp them by giving whatever you can.

Fight Parkinson’s is a leading source of specialised health information, advice, and services for those in the Parkinson's community. Through research, education, and support, they strive to improve the lives of people living with Parkinson’s or Atypical Parkinson’s (PSP, MSA and CBS).

The more people that know about Parkinson's, the greater their impact, so please also spread the word by sharing my page with your friends and family.

Thank you in advance for your generosity, it means a lot!
