Parkinson Association of the Rockies

24 Hours to Give Where You Live

The Parkinson Association of the Rockies needs your support to reach our goal of raising $25,000 in one day!

On Tuesday, December 10th Coloradoans will come together again to raise millions of dollars for nonprofits like ours.

Every Cent Counts!

Give to your favorite, approved Colorado Gives charities through the website www.ColoradoGives.org and really make it count! All credit card and processing fees will be covered by Community First Foundation - so 100% of every dollar you donate will go directly to the Parkinson Association. And, when you give online any time on December 10th, your donation will be increased by the FirstBank Incentive Fund.

Party for Parkinson's - Party with a House

What House? A Gingerbread House!

Longmont & Denver Winning Houses

On Saturday, November 16th in Longmont and Saturday, November 23rd in Denver, our community joined us in a competition for the best decorated gingerbread house while raising awareness of Parkinson's. Event participants created memories with family, friends and co-workers and kicked-off the holiday season with sugar and sweets! Event participants were provided with a pre-built gingerbread house, frosting and candy decorations; but it was the personal touches that really added the flair. Visit our Facebook page to view event photos. Thanks to everyone who celebrated with us - we look forward to you joining us for the party next year!

We would also like to give a huge thanks to Old Chicago and Craftworks Foundation - beyond hosting us for these events - they surprised us with a $500.00 donation!

Special thanks to our event judges, volunteers and sponsors
