The National Parkinson Foundation: The mission of the National Parkinson Foundation (NPF) is to make life better for people with Parkinson’s through expert care and research.

Parkinson’s Disease (PD)

Affecting an estimated one million Americans and four to six million worldwide, PD is the second most common neurodegenerative disease after Alzheimer’s and is the 14th leading cause of death in the United States. It is associated with a progressive loss of motor control (e.g., shaking or tremor at rest and lack of facial expression) as well as non-motor symptoms (e.g., depression and anxiety). There is no cure for PD and 60,000 new cases are diagnosed each year in the United States alone. There is a link between Ashkenazic Jews of European descent and PD. These individuals are more likely to carry a mutation in the LRRK2 gene than other folks. This gene is the most common genetic contributor to Parkinson Disease. Studying people carrying the LRRK2 mutation can make a huge difference in finding new treatment methods. Sergey Brin, co-founder of Google, is a carrier of this gene mutation which he inherited from his mother who has had early onset PD.

About the National Parkinson Foundation (NPF)

Founded in 1957, the National Parkinson Foundation’s mission is to make life better for people with Parkinson’s through expert care and research. NPF has funded more than $189 million in care, research and support services. For more information about NPF, visit www.parkinson.org, or call the NPF Helpline at 1-800-4PD-INFO (473-4636).

NPF remains focused and dedicated to finding the best treatments that help control the symptoms of PD and enable people with Parkinson’s to manage the disease.

Moving Day®: A National Celebration of Movement

Moving Day® is more than just a walk. It highlights “movement” and exercise as a symbol of hope and progress because of its essential role in treating Parkinson’s disease. Each event features our unique Movement Pavilion, with stations such as yoga, Pilates, Tai Chi, dance and much more. Whether you take part on a team or join as an individual, you’ll get a chance to move with thousands of supporters who share a common goal — to help beat Parkinson’s.

Since it launched in 2011, the Moving Day® program has raised over $11 million and attracted over 80,000 participants.
