Together For Sharon | Parkinson’s Awareness

We started TogetherForSharon® as a family for the purpose of keeping my mother, Sharon Riff Ackerman’s, memory alive and to share the message of Parkinson’s Awareness and hope for a cure.

The goal is to ensure the world is aware of Parkinson’s Disease through all of our journeys …. To reach out to legislators and support funding research to stop the progression, reverse the progression and finally a cure. How do we reach more communities and express the urgency?
