Moving Day Chicago
Join together as a community to honor loved ones with Parkinson’s disease, raise awareness, support the life-changing work of the Parkinson’s Foundation, and celebrate movement – proven to help manage Parkinson’s symptoms. Whether you take part on a team or join as an individual, move with thousands of supporters who share a common goal — to fight Parkinson’s disease.
Put on your Moving Day gear and comfortable shoes – it’s time to move! Get ready to exercise, explore Parkinson’s resources, join in the uplifting We Move Ceremony and enjoy the Moving Day Walk. You don’t want to miss out on the inspiring day we have planned for you!
