We’re here for you!
The Ohio Parkinson Foundation Northeast Region (OPFNE) is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization committed to improving the quality of life for those affected by Parkinson's Disease (PD). Our focus is local! We want to be your resource for information on local events, classes and services. The foundation offers an annual free educational symposium, supports the efforts of many charitable organizations involved in the development of wellness programming for Parkinson community, and provides funding for local PD research. The Foundation also maintains contact and general information for the Parkinson Support Groups in the 16 counties that it serves.
A sincere thank you for the many donations we have received this year in honor of those with Parkinson's in our local community. We are continuing to use these funds to support and educate in NE Ohio especially through the wonderful support groups. We have also used funds to develop exercise classes in new communities, support local research, and fund educational programs.
