Bob Kuhn, Chair of our Parkinson’s Advisory Council, has a personal message of thanks to share with our incredible community of supporters: Because of you, today is an extraordinary day. Today is National Philanthropy Day, a day that for me, as a Canadian living with Parkinson’s and a Parkinson Canada volunteer, is filled with special gratitude for you. Thanks to the support of our compassionate community, my family and I have had dependable information, resources and support available to us through Parkinson Canada at every stage of my journey. Since I was first diagnosed in 2006, and thanks to you, I have been increasingly enabled to realize a better quality of life through new innovations. And you have given me hope through investments in game-changing research. Your generosity, as tangible evidence of your caring, brings us closer to a future we all envision: a future in which every Canadian with Parkinson’s is empowered to live well. It is a future we are creating together. And I cannot thank you enough – today, and every day! Gratefully, Bob Kuhn Chair, Parkinson Advisory Council Thank you for your generosity!
