share your story and help raise research dollars
 

MJFF is excited to announce the launch of the “Tell Us Your Story” campaign on The Michael J. Fox Foundation Facebook page. The campaign provides a platform for members of the Parkinson’s community to share their personal experience with the disease while raising dollars for high-impact research.

Participants can access the “Tell Us Your Story” application through the MJFF Facebook page and in 500 words or less share with their own social circle how Parkinson’s disease (PD) affects their lives. For every “Like” or “Share” a story receives within the Tell Us Your Story application, biopharmaceutical company UCB, Inc. will donate $5, up to $60,000, to support MJFF’s ambitious research to speed a cure for Parkinson’s.

Plus, remember, every donation earned through the “Tell Us Your Story” campaign will be eligible for a dollar-for-dollar match via the Brin Wojcicki Challenge, which doubles new and increased giving through year-end. So, that can add up for a pretty significant contribution to science. If you are inclined, we invite you to tell your story and let your friends and family know how they can raise funds for the PD research by "liking" and "sharing" your story on the Tell Us Your Story application. You can check out other participants' stories too.
