Look at what can occur when a disease foundation has a strategy and the leadership to followup that strategy. Our
fucking failures of stroke associations
can't even copy successful non-profits, they are that fucking bad. And
our boards of directors don't seem to know how bad they are.
60,000 Americans are diagnosed with Parkinson's disease each year as compared to 800,000 strokes in the USA. Which disease needs more help?

Dear Friend,
Over the next few days, a bipartisan group of U.S. representatives is taking action to support Parkinson's disease (PD) research. It's crucial that we join these efforts and speak up for the PD community.
These lawmakers are circulating letters asking their colleagues in the House of Representatives to fund a national Parkinson's disease database and two agencies that conduct PD research. This is an important step in the process to obtain critically needed funding!
It's important to act now as there are only a few days left to secure signatures. Your representative has until March 14 to join the letters. The more signatures they receive, the more likely it is that the database and research programs will be funded. Urge your legislator to sign on now!
