Thank You, Fareway Customers! 🙌

We are absolutely blown away by the generosity and support shown during the Round-Up at the Register event at local Fareway grocery stores from April 14th–19th. Thanks to YOU, an incredible $54,899.87 was raised in just 6 short days to support vital Parkinson’s programs and resources!

As a 100% donor-funded organization, we simply couldn’t do this without amazing community partners like Fareway—and the wonderful Fareway customers who made this happen. Every penny rounded up helps us bring education, support, and hope to those living with Parkinson’s!

From the bottom of our hearts: THANK YOU! 💙
