Moving Day is an annual community event that unites people across the country in the fight against Parkinson’s disease. It’s not just a walk—it’s a celebration of movement with activities for people of all ages and abilities. From a family-friendly walk to exercise demonstrations like yoga, dance and boxing, all proven to help manage Parkinson’s symptoms, there’s something for everyone. Join us to build meaningful connections and discover valuable resources within the Parkinson’s community. Learn more. Registered participants who raise $100 or more will receive a Moving Day T-shirt at their event. Donors who give $100 or more do not qualify unless they are also registered and have raised $100 on their own fundraising page. Companies can participate by forming a team, volunteering or sponsoring a local Moving Day event. Each event has unique sponsorship opportunities.
