MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT NOVEMBER 2014

In the story RED MARBLES, one of the morals is: We will not be remembered by our words, but by our kind deeds.

As 2014 comes to a close and we reflect on the year, we stand in gratitude and appreciation to our many supporters for helping us help so many. Through the efforts of our support groups, one-on-one coaching, the Wellness Village, our interactive website, and, of course, our monthly newsletters, we have helped more people in 2014 than ever before in our 24 year history.

Our Parkinson’s community is starving for connection and the team at Parkinson’s Resource Organization is that connection to live, human conversation, communication, one-on-one assistance and personal encouragement. Nowhere else in the Parkinson’s world is this level of personal care and connection to be found. Our mission and daily endeavors are NOT AN OPTION, they are a requirement.  We MUST be here for those who need us.

To do this… asking for support is also, NOT AN OPTION. We need you.  As we look to 2015 as a year of possibility and growth, your help is vital to our organization and outreach.

As we near the season of giving and perpetual hope, please remember how much your charitable giving means to PRO. Help us to burn bright, to be the “light at the end of the tunnel” and to receive the Red Marbles. Dedicate your holiday donations to those dearest to you, by using our site or mailing checks to PRO.

I thank you in advance from the bottom of my heart, for helping us help so many others.
