The American Parkinson Disease Association, Inc. (APDA) is the largest grassroots network dedicated to fighting Parkinson’s disease (PD) and works tirelessly to help the approximately one million with PD in the United States live life to the fullest in the face of this chronic, neurological disorder.
We are honored by and appreciative of those who chose to leave a lasting legacy by including APDA in their planned giving.
Founded in 1961, APDA has raised and invested more than $226 million to provide outstanding patient services and educational programs, elevate public awareness about the disease, and support research designed to unlock the mysteries of Parkinson’s disease and ultimately put an end to this disease.
Join us in the fight against Parkinson’s disease and to learn more about the support APDA provides nationally through our network of Chapters and Information and Referral (I&R) Centers, as well as our national Research Program and Centers for Advanced Research.
NEW for 2024: Higher ACGA rates could mean more income for you.
Getting Started
There are many planned gifts that won’t affect your existing financial resources, but will have a significant impact on APDA. Give to the institution you care so much about, while maintaining control and flexibility.
A Gift Through Your Will
Many of our supporters leave a gift to APDA in their wills or trusts (Bequest) to fight against Parkinson’s disease. All assets, including cash, securities, and real estate, may be transferred. You can, too.
