Parkinson's Is Not Witchcraft

PROSPERA/THRIVE's image

Imagine receiving the diagnosis of Parkinson's Disease, to then be ostracized by your family, friends, and community because they believe you practice witchcraft and are infectious because of your disease. To those in Uganda, this is not an imagination and unfortunately is a reality.

Kabugo Hannington, Sherryl Klingelhofer, and the rest of their team are helping our Ugandan PD community through the Si Buko organization. They are working hard to dispel the myth of witchcraft, bring communities together through advocacy and education, as well as provide the care needed to live well with PD.

I feel called to their organization and to the Ugandan community, and have decided to donate 5% of all proceeds to the Parkinson's Si Buko organization. You can also donate directly to the organization by visiting their website using the QR code above. No one with PD should feel alone.
