The Family Jules Parkinson's Unity Walk Dine-To-Donate!

We're hosting a Dine-To-Donate fundraiser at the Applebee's location in East Brunswick! My family and I have been active in the Parkinson's Unity Walk held in Central Park in New York for the past 3 years and this year we wanted to get the East Brunswick Community involved. On Thursday, March 13th from 11am until 9pm, Applebees will donate 10% of each check that has our Parkinson's Unity Walk dine-to-donate flyer attached to it. All you have to do is:

  1. Print out the attached flyer
  2. Head on over to Applebees on Thursday, March 13th 
  3. Hand the flyer to your friendly neighborhood waiter/waitress
  4. Enjoy your meal!
You can read more about our involvement in the walk over the years below:

For the third year in a row, we (my family and I) have signed up to walk with the Parkinson's Unity Walk to be held on Saturday, April 26, 2014. 
I'm walking because my grandpa Jules lost his battle to Parkinson's in 2004. He would have been just one of over one million people in the United States that currently have Parkinson's.  60,000 people are newly diagnosed every year - one person, every nine minutes.  Walking and raising funds and awareness is my chance to help and support my Grandpa Jules' memory.  And with the Parkinson's Unity Walk, 100% of donations go to research.
Please support me on my path to reach my personal fundraising goal!To make a donation today, please follow the link below to our team's web page:
