THANK YOU
Many within the Just Giver Team have seen those close to them diagnosed and some lost to Parkinson’s and all continue to see the debilitating effects of this disease firsthand. Through the sponsorship of this event you make it possible for the Just Giver Team to raise funds, awareness and hope to help those living with Parkinson’s disease.
We look forward to speaking with you.

Why your support is critical
Parkinson’s disease is a devastating neurological disorder that is life threatening.It affects 11,000 British Columbians and over 100,000 Canadians.As Parkinson’s disease advances, most people live between the daily extremes of constant involuntary movement, to not being able to move at all.They face the unavoidable reality that one-day, they will not be able to talk, swallow or perform the simplest daily tasks that we all take for granted.Presently, there is no cure.
Even though Parkinson’s is the second most common neurological disorder next to Alzheimer’s, it does not receive the necessary funding for treatment, education or research from governments.
Parkinson Society British Columbia
Established in 1969, Parkinson Society British Columbia (PSBC) is a not-for-profit membership organization.Its mission is to address the personal and social consequences of Parkinson’s disease through education, community outreach, scientific research, advocacy and public awareness. It is important to note that the Society receives no government funding.100% of its support comes from the generosity of individual donors and members, corporations, foundations and the dedicated efforts of volunteers.
How we deliver our mission throughout BC
Support, Education and Community Outreach
PSBC works closely with 48 support groups throughout British Columbia.Its services are delivered in the Parkinson’s community through educational conferences and seminars, information packages, and advocacy for improved healthcare and access to medications.The healthcare community benefits from PSBC through workshops and training seminars.
Awareness
Our message “You Are Not Alone. We Can Help” was featured in a three-month awareness campaign on television and in newsprint.In 2009, this campaign resulted in a 30% increase in information calls to the Society.
Research
PSBC significantly contributes to local research conducted at the Pacific Parkinson’s Research Centre, UBC in addition to Parkinson Society Canada’s National Research Program.While there is currently no cure, scientists are making great strides in discovering genetic causes and improved drug therapy.
