Donations & Support

Together we can make a difference!   The OPFNE  (501c3) exists  to  assist those living with Parkinson's in our area.  We support many excellent programs such as Come Dance With Me and the Amalia Foundation plus administer  19 support groups, all in Northeast Ohio.  We present an annual symposium on pertinent topics for those with Parkinson’s and we also work with many state and national organizations  to distribute information locally and to support their research efforts.   A donation to OPFNE helps those in our community living with Parkinson’s find support, friendship, and  resources right here at home!

Thank you to all of the donors that have so generously supported OPFNE this past year.  Your donations have  enabled us to:

  • present our annual symposium reaching over 200 people with Parkinsons,
