We are raising funds and awareness for Parkinson’s Research. Parkinson’s Disease affects the nervous system.

Scientists are working hard to find out what causes Parkinson’s Disease and how to stop it. But until they find a way to make it go away, together as a community we can raise awareness and funds so research can continue. All money raised from this walkathon will be donated to the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Research into Parkinson’s Disease.

Please scan the code to participate. 20 rmb is not a lot but lots of 20 rmbs will be a lot.

Invite all your friends. Let’s join together to make a difference.
