Parkinson’s Disease Trailblazers (PDT)
Our mission
Empower
At Parkinson’s Disease Trailblazers (PDT), we believe that a Parkinson’s diagnosis doesn’t define a person—it’s simply a new path to navigate. Our mission is to empower individuals living with Parkinson’s and their families by providing access to life-changing movement-based programs, fostering a supportive community, and spreading awareness about Parkinson’s Disease.
Break Barriers
Through fundraising events and educational initiatives, we work to break barriers and ensure that those affected by Parkinson’s have the tools and resources they need to thrive.
Who We Are
PDT is a dedicated non-profit organization founded by the team at Sweat Therapy Fitness, inspired by our passion for improving lives through movement and connection. While Sweat Therapy Fitness offers Rock Steady Boxing and specialized fitness programs for Parkinson’s, PDT expands on this mission by providing scholarships for these programs and increasing community awareness about Parkinson’s Disease.
what we do
- Fund Scholarships – We host fundraising events to help individuals with Parkinson’s access Rock Steady Boxing and other specialized fitness programs, ensuring cost is never a barrier to better health.
- Raise Awareness – We educate the community about Parkinson’s Disease, emphasizing the importance of movement, support, and early intervention.
- Build a Stronger Community – We bring together individuals with Parkinson’s, caregivers, and advocates to create a network of encouragement, education, and empowerment.
