A friendly reminder that the Gala is this month!
On Friday, October 23, we invite you to the Help for Parkinson’s Gala benefitting Parkinson’s Research at Albany Medical Center and Help for Parkinson’s, an organization dedicated to helping those dealing with Parkinson’s live their best possible life. The Gala will be held at the Colonie Golf and Country Club. Complimentary valet parking will be provided.
The festivities will start at 6:00 pm with cocktails and hors d'oeuvres, followed by dinner, dancing, and raffle items. Our guest speaker this year is Steven Yellen, author of the book “Living Parkinson’s, 7 strategies for living well with Parkinson’s Disease.” The evening will conclude at 9:30. Registration is available on our website at www.helpforpd.org.
The theme of the Gala is “A Better Tomorrow – Live Well with Parkinson’s Disease.” Join us for an evening of connection with others in our Parkinson’s community. Folks living with Parkinson’s, Care Partners, Doctors, Wellness Practitioners and Researchers working towards a cure will all be there. It is an opportunity to celebrate another year of living our best possible lives while we navigate the challenges of Parkinson’s. We hope you will join us for an evening of wonderful company, good food, fun, and dancing!
