LOUISVILLE, KY–– It’s time to break out your finest casual and western chic – cowboy hats and all -for the 8th Annual Denim & Diamonds Gala on Friday, June 5th at the Mellwoods Arts and Entertainment Center; benefitting the Parkinson Support Center and the Parkinson’s patients and families the organization serves in Louisville as well as other communities throughout Kentucky and Southern Indiana. This year’s event begins at 6:00 p.m. on Friday, June 5th, along with hundreds of friends and supporters in their jeans, boots, fringe and, of course, a few diamonds.
The Parkinson’s Support Center’s Denim & Diamonds Gala celebration raises money to help fund support groups, exercise programs, and educational sessions all aimed at improving the quality of life among those affected by Parkinson’s disease in our community. “Denim and Diamonds is our largest annual fundraiser contributing to 40% of our annual budget. This fundraiser is not only a chance to raise awareness for Parkinson’s disease, but it is an opportunity for the community to show support and raise money in a fun way. The funding from this event allows us to keep our programs and services free of charge for those living with Parkinson’s and their families.” –Allie Hanson, Community Engagement Coordinator
