Celebrate Spring!
Since 2008, the Parkinson’s Disease Foundation (PDF), with the help of the Young New Yorkers for the Fight Against Parkinson’s Committee, has held the Celebrate Spring! event to benefit PDF's research programs.
The event gathers hundreds of young New Yorkers for cocktails and dancing. All proceeds from the evening are directed toward Parkinson’s research.
The idea for the event was initially conceived by G. Pennington Egbert III, his sister Melissa Egbert Sheehan and their close friend Georgina B. Schaeffer. The three, whose fathers both lived with Parkinson’s disease, joined together to create the Young New Yorkers for the Fight Against Parkinson’s committee – a group of nearly 100 New Yorkers dedicated to advancing a cure for Parkinson’s.
Details about the 2010 Celebrate Spring event will be available in Winter 2009.
