Helping those living with Parkinson's disease access the services and support they need to rise above their diagnosis.
If you or a loved one are living with Parkinson’s, you are well aware of the financial burden the disease brings.
Over and above the medical costs, the average annual indirect and non-medical costs for a person diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease is over $19K – over $25K when combined with caregiver burden.
You may find you have to make some difficult decisions about which necessary services you are able to access.
We at Rise Above Parkinsons know how you feel. Our loved one has been on his Parkinson’s journey for over a decade now, and during that time, we’ve financed home renovations, adaptive gear, therapeutic services, and more. We’ve found these supportive services to be critical to his well-being and quality of life. And we want that for your loved one too.
Rise Above Parkinsons is a place where you can feel cared for, and where you can receive financial support, trust, and the attention you need. Our goal is to help your loved one live the best life possible. Because we’re all in this together.
Because you are so much more than your diagnosis.
We want to help you rise.
