American Parkinson Disease Association Atlanta Optimism Walk
The Optimism Walk series is a cornerstone of APDA’s efforts to empower people with PD and their care partners and families with the resources and support they need; to advance research and public policy in pursuit of better treatments and ultimately a cure; and to increase public awareness of the fastest-growing neurological disease in the world. Participants show solidarity with those impacted by PD and, through fundraising and donations, directly support APDA’s essential programs and services delivered by a nationwide network of Chapters and Information & Referral (I&R) Centers. The APDA Georgia Optimism Walk in Atlanta is a family-friendly event featuring a short walk, educational opportunities, sponsor activities, lawn games, music, and food. Most importantly, it’s a chance to bond with others who share a connection to PD. The Walk is perfect for anyone who wants to show support and help put an end to this disease—from people with PD and care partners to family, friends, neighbors, and coworkers. Registration is free and open to all. Participants are encouraged to fundraise, form teams, and spread awareness leading up to the Walk. Fundraising efforts are crucial in supporting APDA’s mission to provide the support, education, research, and community that helps everyone impacted by PD live life to the fullest. As such, there are prizes for every individual who raises $100 or more. Funds raised help fuel APDA Georgia Chapter programs and resources.
