It Is Sole Support Season

BECOMING A PARKINSON’S CHAMPION HAS NEVER BEEN EASIER

EVERY STEP IS PERSONAL: Find Your Reason

“Sole Support for Parkinson’s” is a day of fundraising and awareness that brings together hundreds of participants from across the region in a spirit of support, community, celebration, and purpose. As we come together, new friendships are formed, existing bonds are strengthened, and smiles are everywhere. When we share our purpose and invite others to join us, our community grows richer and more vibrant.

At each walk location, we offer both a ~1k and ~5k walk route suitable for participants of all ages and abilities. Individuals, families, and teams gather to create a powerful opportunity to raise awareness and support for those living with Parkinson’s and PD+. Together, we ensure that no one has to face this disease alone.

Registered participants who raise at least $100 toward their personal goal receive 2023 shirt

Why We Walk

Sole Support raises awareness and funds for Parkinson’s Resources of Oregon (PRO). PRO’s mission is to empower individuals to meet the challenges of living with Parkinson’s disease through information, education, personal support, and advocacy for a cure. Your contributions go directly back into Oregon and SW Washington communities, helping bridge the wellness gap by offering local support to people with Parkinson’s, their families, and care partners.

WHO ARE YOU WALKING FOR?

Parkinson’s disease affects thousands of families here in the Pacific Northwest. It’s likely that many of us have been touched by this neurological disease in some way. So, whether you’re participating for yourself or a loved one – whether it’s your spouse, aunt, grandfather, neighbor, or friend – know that the simple act of joining us at Sole Support on this day of community and advocacy is a powerful statement of care. We can’t wait to see you there!
