Inspire your community to get moving for Medical Fitness Week benefiting the Davis Phinney Foundation for Parkinson's by taking the Move150 Challenge!  While there is no cost to participate, we encourage teams to turn their Medical Fitness Week into a fundraiser to help people with Parkinson's live well today.  Fundraising can earn grant funding for your facility to support Parkinson's programming!

MOVE150 focuses on motivating participants to get moving regardless of their abilities. The purpose of the program is for participants to reach 150 minutes of activity through out Medical Fitness Week using a variety of programs/offerings at your facility.  And it's fun!

All marketing materials and event downloads will be emailed to you upon registering your "team" for the event.  Each facility should register one team.  Get started with these easy steps:

1. Start a Team for your facility

2. In your confirmation email, download your materials and fill in the blanks

3. Recruit your participants

4. Encourage fundraising - there are prizes and opportunities to earn funding for your facility

5. Get excited!

 

When you fundraise, not only do you get an extra boost knowing you’re making a difference in the lives of people living with Parkinson’s, but you also get incredible team support and perks that make your experience far more memorable than fundraising alone.
