Dedicated to the physical, mental, emotional and social needs of those living with Parkinson’s disease in the Greater Dayton/Cincinnati metroplex; to help people learn about the disease, connect to local resources (support and exercise groups), produce educational programming, provide grants to tailored exercise programs, and sponsor support groups and events.
Parkinson's Support and Wellness Inc. directs its giving toward people living with Parkinson’s disease and their caregivers in the Greater Dayton/Cincinnati metroplex, with support that reaches education, exercise, support groups, and local community programming. Recent grants show a pattern of funding hands-on service delivery: Forever Fitness received $16,000 in 2025 for program support, while Neurofitness Rock Steady Boxing received $14,000 in 2025 for program support. The foundation also backs organizations working on tailored Parkinson’s services in nearby communities, including Kettering Neurorehab and Balance Center, which received $13,000 in 2025. A notable feature of the grantmaking is its use of community grants to help cover the practical costs of programming, including participant fee subsidies, equipment, salaries, training, and facilities. That structure aligns with the foundation’s stated focus on helping people learn about the disease, connect to local resources, and access exercise and support opportunities. The grant record reflects a local, program-centered funder that concentrates on community organizations serving Parkinson’s patients and caregivers across the Cincinnati, Dayton, and surrounding regional corridor.
Education is a recurring theme in the grant record. The foundation gave $10,000 in 2024 to Premier Health Miami Valley Foundation for program support, and the stated program areas include education for people living with Parkinson’s disease and their caregivers. Exercise programming is another clear emphasis: Alpha Neuro Fitness received $10,000 in 2024 for program support, and Senior Mobile Therapy & Associates received $5,200 in 2025. Support for community-based services also appears in grants to organizations such as Yellow Springs Senior Center, which received $6,630 in 2025 for program support. Across these examples, the foundation backs organizations that deliver tailored services rather than broad, general-purpose grantmaking. The focus areas listed for its programs include support groups, caregiver support, community events, and local wellness programming.
Typical grant size sits around a median of $10,000, with the 25th percentile at $7,505 and the 75th percentile at $12,750. The recent record also includes repeated support to the same organizations across multiple years, which points to a recurring pattern rather than one-off awards. Parkinson's Support and Wellness Inc. uses short-term, annual program grants and project-specific, restricted funding, with community grants and program grants listed as active vehicles. Unsolicited applications are accepted for the community grant programs described in the data.
