Walk with us and help put an end to Parkinson’s disease!
The Optimism Walk is a non-competitive, family-friendly fundraising walk.
Why Walk? Because every 6 minutes, someone is diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease.
The more funds we raise, the more people we can help!
Earn great prizes for raising $100, $500, and more!
