The Michael J. Fox Foundation: Just In: We Need 2,000 Donors in 48 Hours

3 Replies

2021 isn’t over. Our staff scientists and business strategists are working hard to deploy funds to high-impact projects before the year ends and we need your help.

Just last month, the FDA expanded its approval of focused ultrasound — a non-invasive surgical therapy that aims to ease Parkinson’s tremor and other motor symptoms — to treat even more Parkinson’s symptoms, such as stiffness and slowness, and dyskinesia. In fact, MJFF funding supported early work on focused ultrasound for dyskinesia. Donors like you are helping bring more treatment options to people living with Parkinson’s today.

The next generation of Parkinson’s treatments are on the horizon, and we won’t stop until we get there. We’ve identified $200,000 of unfunded ideas that need your support now. If 2,000 individuals contribute $100 in the next 48 hours, we can close the gap before 2021 ends.
