APDA 2010 WALK-A-THONS |
|
The APDA Walk-A-Thon is the world's largest grassroots fund-raiser dedicated to Parkinson's disease research. Expenses are kept at a minimum, so 100% of the money sent to the national office is used for research. Many individuals who do not regularly donate to APDA take this opportunity to directly fund research to find cause and cure for Parkinson's disease.
Each year, the APDA national office makes available brochures, pledge sheets, T-shirts, posters and public service announcements; provides insurance; coordinates local efforts, and assists in starting new Walk-A-Thons.
In the past few years, advances in desktop publishing and printing have enabled some groups to make their own brochures, featuring local details while offering an opportunity to thank local sponsors.
Whether you are able to complete the entire route or simply walk around your dining room, you can make a difference in this exciting effort to raise funds for Parkinson's disease research.
Simply ask your friends and relatives to support your efforts by pledging any dollar amount. Every dollar raised from the Walk-A-Thon, will be used specifically to underwrite the costs of scientific research into finding the cause and cure of Parkinson's disease.
Remember everyone - old and young, hearty and disabled - can participate in some meaningful way. If, however, you are unable to take part in this year's Walk-A-Thon, your gift to the APDA Walk-A-Thon is critical and works just as hard to support Parkinson's disease research.
We have provided a form which you can print, fill out and return to the national office, with your donation. Simply click on the link to view the APDA Walk-A-Thon Registration Form.
For more details how to start and participate in these Walk-A-Thons, please contact Charlene at 1-800-223-2732 or via email:CAllo@apdaparkinson.org
