The Light of Day foundation donated a matching grant of $80,000 to CurePSP, a nonprofit advocacy group focused towards neurodegenerative diseases to help fund their programs in patients and family care along with research, education and awareness. Because of the matched grant, CurePSP was able to raise a total of $120,000 from donors.

About Light of Day Foundation

The Light of Day Foundation is dedicated to raising money and awareness for Parkinson’s disease and related neurodegenerative diseases such as progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Since its inception in 2000, Light of Day has raised over $3 million in the fight to find a cure for Parkinson’s disease.

Fun fact: In 1987, Michael J. Fox starred in a movie titled “Light of Day”. As many people are aware, Fox is diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease.
