TARGET No. 2 - Another £100,000   
A completely separate initiative from End to End to End Parkinson's Disease 

 

A new concept in fundraising

 

Fast Forward Funding

 

 

A cure for Parkinson's Disease is in its end game phase. The tools and the plans are understood and many diverse end games are being played out simultaneously. There are many problems to be solved and time is an unknown factor, but one of the areas of research will succeed and a cure will be found. Parkinson's Disease will be consigned to the history books.

 

How much is a cure worth to you?   We are the ones with PD? I’ve asked this question of many people with PD, how much is a cure worth to you and they always say, 'Everything'. So if we want a cure we have to up the ante now. But the big question is, how much are you prepared to pay? I  am asking you that question now. How much are you prepared to pay? If a neighbour's child needed an emergency life-saving operation abroad, would you sit on your hands and wait or would you dig deep into your cheque book now. Parkinson's Disease is curable, but are you just going to sit and wait, to see how things pan out or are you going to do something about it now. How much are you prepared to pay? What is that cure worth to you? How much are you prepared to pay, now?

 

£100,000 will pay for a research project for three years. Just 100 of us could pay for that.  If I pledged to sign a cheque for £1000 are there 99 of you out there who would match me? I am prepared to start the ball rolling. Will you join me?  With 27% Gift Aid contributed by the Government, your donation will become £1,270. Collectively, we would generate £127000. Together we can help to cure Parkinson's Disease. If you would like to pledge £1000, now, send a private email to davidgreaves@pedalforparkinsons.co.uk. Or why not find a business sponsor to pledge £1000 on your behalf. The donors will remain anonymous and will collectively decide on the research project to target.

 

Fast forward Funding.  There are 120,000 Parkinson’s sufferers in Britain. They have a wide circle of family and friends. Amongst them are the 99 donors I need.
