UPDATE: Running for Parkinson’s: 250km in 30 days
Dear church family,
On December 19, I launched a fundraiser to raise awareness
for Parkinson’s by running 250km in 30days. My grandpa
was diagnosed with Parkinson’s a few years ago and I have
seen the effect this disease can have on the individual,
family and friends. A large part of Parkinson’s disease is
difficulty with movement which can make everyday activities
harder. Physical activity is also important for improving
motor and non-motor symptoms of Parkinson’s. By running
250km in 30 days, I hope to bring awareness to Parkinson’s
and the struggles that come along with it. My fundraising
goal is $7,500, that means 1km=$30. As of January 5, I have
raised $6,295 and have ran 166.8km. I am so grateful for all
the support I have received so far and continue to receive.
Please consider joining me to make a difference in the lives of those affected with Parkinson’s
disease.
I am fundraising through Parkinson Canada and my fundraising page can be found
at http://donate.parkinson.ca/goto/RunningforParkinsons.
I have also created a personal page with more information about my fundraiser as well as a way to
keep everyone updated regarding the progress. My personal page
is: https://runningforparkinsons.weebly.com.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.
Thanks, Danielle Groenendijk (dgroenendijk@hotmail.com)
