We are excited to share that Aldersbridge Physical Therapy & Wellness Center will once again be supporting the APDA Optimism Walk on Saturday, September 27th, 2025 at Warwick City Park, Stephen O’Connor Blvd in Warwick, RI. This will be our third consecutive year walking together to raise awareness and funds for Parkinson’s disease.

We’d love for you to join our walking team this year! Our fundraising goal is $1,500 as a team, and there are several ways you can participate:

Walk with us on September 27th.

Create a fundraising profile to share with family and friends via social media or email.

Make a donation – even if you can’t attend, every contribution helps support this wonderful cause.

This fundraiser is especially meaningful to us because the APDA Rhode Island Chapter recently awarded us a grant that made it possible to host our 12-week “LOUD & Limitless” Parkinson’s exercise program, blending components of both LSVT BIG and LOUD. This program has given our community members living with Parkinson’s a chance to build strength, confidence, and connection – and it’s only possible thanks to the APDA’s support.

We are grateful for this partnership and want to give back by showing up strong at the Optimism Walk. Together, we can make a real difference in the lives of people living with Parkinson’s and their families.

Thank you for your support, whether by walking, fundraising, or donating. Every step we take together brings us closer to hope and progress.
