I'm participating in Pedaling for Parkinson’s to raise money for Parkinson Canada which will empower the Parkinson’s community through raising the voice of all those impacted by Parkinson’s and by providing tailored support and innovative research.
More than 100,000 Canadians live with Parkinson's, a number expected to increase substantially in the coming years, with more than 30 Canadians diagnosed each day.
I'm aiming to raise $1,200 this summer, representing the more than 12,000 Canadians that are diagnosed each year with Parkinson's. I know that it is an ambitious goal, but Parkinson's is a serious issue within Canada and deserves all of our efforts to support vital research and support.
I've met some incredible people after working closely with the Canadian Parkinson's community the last nine months and I am proud to be Pedaling for Parkinson's. I really do appreciate every donation, no matter how big or small.
If you have any questions, please reach out to me!
