Thank you for riding the 2023 Pedaling for Parkinson's Prince Edward County Ride
Thank you for riding with us. We hope you enjoyed the event! Your support enables Parkinson Canada to fund research, provide care and create resources, news, and events that transform the lives of people touched by Parkinson's.
More than 100,000 Canadians are struggling with the stigma and daily challenges of living with Parkinson's. That number will grow by about 30 people tomorrow and the day after that until we reach 50 new diagnoses per day within the decade.
By participating in Pedaling for Parkinson's, you are ensuring that a full life with Parkinson's is still possible. This year's ride may be over, but the impact you have continues. Thank you!
Fundraising Rewards
We hope you continue to wear your tech t-shirt and cycling jersey year round to celebrate your fundraising efforts. If you didn't pick up your items on-site, or you reached the fundraising levels post-ride, please email us at pedaling@parkinson.ca. You can continue to fundraise and earn rewards until September 30, and the final day to fundraise for this year's campaign is December 31, 2023.
