Very encouraging news from the Clyde Campbell Foundation

Founder and CEO Shake It Up

I got this email from them today...

Today is World Parkinson's Day! A day we ask everyone to come together to support Parkinson's Research.

In Australia, there are over 100,000 living with Parkinson's, and a further person diagnosed every 40 minutes.

The past year has been very challenging for many, but it has shown us what's possible to advance research. Decades of research focused on unraveling the Parkinson’s puzzle are now paying off as we see the science progress at a more rapid pace.

There are a number of promising new drugs that have the potential to slow and stop disease progression that will be going to Phase 3 clinical trials in Australia later this year and in early 2022. We need your help to ensure we can fund these trials and give hope to the 100,000 Australians impacted by Parkinson’s.

At Shake It Up we are as committed as ever to finding better treatments that will slow and stop the progression of Parkinson’s in our pursuit of a cure.

Please help us continue the momentum by making a donation to Parkinson's research. I guarantee that 100% of your donation will fund leading research right here in Australia, thanks to our founding directors covering all the administration and overhead expenses of the foundation.

Thanks again for your support. Together we can make a difference!

"100% of your donation will fund leading research." "our founding directors covering all administration and overhead expenses of the foundation." I have literally never seen a PD organization where 100% of contributions go to research. That is amazing. I will seek them out for this reason. "we see the science progess at a more rapid pace." Very uplifting. Thank you for posting.
