PJ Parkinson's Light Up The Night Annual Gala

We are grateful for the incredible support of everyone that attended our Light Up the Night for Parkinson's Gala. Because of your support the night was a great success. No one battling Parkinson's disease should do it alone. We serve to aid in early diagnosis and improve the lives of those directly impacted by Parkinson's disease and their caregivers. 

 

PJ Parkinson's goal is to provide support, resources, and advocacy to those living with Parkinson's disease or caring for a loved one impacted by Parkinson's within our community and surrounding counties.

 

We hope that everyone had as great a time as we did! Check out some photos from the incredible evening below.

About Parkinson's Disease

Parkinson's disease symptoms are different for different people. Some are hard for even doctors to detect. Others are obvious even to an untrained eye. Visit a movement disorder specialist if you think you're experiencing Parkinson's symptoms.
