Get ready! It’s almost time for Step Forward! 

Step Forward is Parkinson Foundation Western Pennsylvania's (PFWPA) annual family-friendly fundraising event. It is a day for the local Parkinson’s community to come together and raise awareness and money so everyone who is impacted by this disease feels heard and supported. This event is kid-friendly, dog-friendly, and open to anyone who wishes to spread hope and joy to the Parkinson’s community! There will be live music, exercise demos, a Step Forward walk, food, beverages, a vendor village, photo booth, games and more! Scroll down the page for more details!

We are encouraging everyone to raise money and awareness for PFWPA so we can continue to offer valuable programming, events, webinars, and resources for the local Parkinson's community.  We have a free fundraising toolkit with information on Peer-to-Peer fundraising and tools (email template, visuals for social media, etc) you can use to make your fundraiser a success! 

Registration includes: admission to the Step Forward event, free food, beverages, live music, access to vendor resource tables, Step Forward walk, photo booth, games, and parking!

Let’s put the FUN back in fundraising! This is our largest fundraiser of the year and we can’t do it without you!  Register today and invite your friends and family to support the Western Pennsylvania’s Parkinson's Community and enjoy an afternoon of good fun!

 

Adult registration is $35/person (Age 12+) includes: admission to the Step Forward event, food, beverage, music, access to vendor resource tables, Step Forward walk, photo booth, games, and parking!

Kids registration is $10/person (Age 11 and under)

When you register to attend as an adult, you will automatically get an individual fundraiser page for Step Forward. You can either:

1) fundraise for Step Forward (Yes!)

OR

2) You can forgo fundraising and just attend the Step Forward event on September 9^th.

If you choose to fundraise (woo hoo!), you can customize your individual page to your liking and share that page with family and friends to spread the word and raise money for PFWPA programming and events!  Your registration fee for Step Forward will go towards your fundraising total.  Example: if you purchase 1 adult ticket for Step Forward for $35, that means you have already raised $35 for your individual fundraising page! 

We are giving away prizes for different fundraising milestones you reach!  Milestone fundraising levels are: $50, $100, $500, $1,000, $2,500.  We will also be giving special prizes to the top 3 individual fundraisers!  You will have until September 30^th to raise money for Step forward. We will reveal the prizes for each of these levels in the coming weeks!  Follow us on social media to be the first to know!

We will also be doing a 50/50 raffle.  You can purchase tickets when you register OR in-person at Step Forward. 50/50 Raffle tickets are: $5 = 1 ticket OR $20 = 5 tickets.
