Join a “Drive Toward a Cure Day”

Local Drives from Coast-to-Coast Throughout the Year

Cars and Camaraderie

It was 1817 when James Parkinson published the first detailed essay about what was then known only as “shaking palsy”. Surely it’s time we found a cure!

While April is Parkinson’s Disease Awareness Month, we believe every month should offer an opportunity to spread awareness and raise much needed funds. Join us to blend cars and camaraderie for this important cause and help us to benefit those challenged by Parkinson’s Disease today and aid further research efforts to put an end to this indiscriminate, progressive movement disorder.
