Join us for the 30th Annual PASWFL Step Up for PD Walk at Naples Botanical Garden as we celebrate three decades of hope, support, and community. This special event is your opportunity to help us continue growing stronger together while enjoying the beauty of one of Southwest Florida's most treasured destinations.

Your registration includes admission to the Naples Botanical Garden, where you can stroll through breathtaking tropical landscapes, colorful flowering gardens, serene water features, and unique plant collections from around the world. After participating in the walk, we encourage you to spend the day exploring the Garden's 170 acres, relaxing with family and friends, taking photos, and enjoying all that this world-class attraction has to offer.

The morning will also feature a continental breakfast, fun activities, opportunities to connect with the Parkinson's community, and a meaningful way to support local individuals and families living with Parkinson's disease.

Registration opens later this summer, so watch for upcoming announcements and make plans now to join us for a memorable day of inspiration, connection, and natural beauty. Together, we're growing stronger every step of the way.

Thank you to everyone who "Stepped-Up" with us in 2026!

Thank you to everyone who stepped up — with love — for PD with us on a beautiful Valentine's Day morning at North Collier Park in Naples. We are so grateful our amazing: walk participants, teams, supporters, sponsors, volunteers, and committee, for stepping up to help our friends and loved ones in Southwest Florida live well with PD. We couldn't do it without you! Your support with this and our upcoming special events make it possible for us to offer the proven and effective programs we offer all year to our friends, neighbors, and loved ones in Southwest Florida touched by PD. (photos of the walk coming soon)
Did you miss the walk? That's okay, you can still support a walker, a team, or donate in honor of someone with PD.
