Fox Foundation, we are excited to share with you the date of our 8 th annual fundraiser, Kickin Parkinson s, which will be held Thursday, October 19, 2017 at the Stone Creek Club and Spa in Covington, LA. We hope that you and your members will be able to join us for this fabulous evening featuring Bag of Donuts!, marvelous food, fine wines, open bar, an auction and many special guests, including Debbie Brooks, cofounder of the Michael J. Fox Foundation. Last year our chapter raised over $388,000 for research for a cure and medical therapies for patients with Parkinson s disease. Out of 1600 Team Fox organizations, our local chapter is one of the top 5 fundraising chapters in the country for Team Fox. Over the last three alone, we have raised over $1,000,000 for Team Fox! Our chapter continues to be committed, not only to fundraising for Team Fox, but also to support people in our communities that are caregivers of Parkinson s patients or are students intending to work to improve the lives of those living with Parkinson s Disease. The Annual Caregiver s Award and the Annual Wilbur Reisig Scholarship recipients will receive their awards at the Kickin Parkinson s event. Information and nomination forms for the Annual Caregiver s Award are enclosed. The Wilbur Reisig Scholarship was awarded earlier this year. We would also like to encourage you and your members to attend a Roundtable Discussion being led by scientists and leaders of the Michael J. Fox Foundation on Friday, October 20, 2017 from 9:00AM-11:00AM at The Southern Hotel in Covington, LA. Please register early for this FREE event, as spaces are limited at https://www.michaeljfox.org/form.php?id=189. Finally, we are donating 4 tickets to the 2017 Kickin Parkinson s event to each support group in the Greater New Orleans area and encourage you to have a drawing at your next meeting. Please let us know who the winners are (and their contact information) so we may hold the tickets for them at the front desk. If you have any questions or would like for a member of our committee to come speak to your group about any of our events or activities, please do not hesitate to contact us at (985) 502-9800.
