Parkinson’s still has no cure. We’re here to change that—fast.

At Chasing a Cure Parkinson’s Foundation, we fund one thing: the science that leads to the cure. That’s it. That’s all we do.

We’re a 501(c)(3) nonprofit laser-focused on ending Parkinson’s disease—for good.

Our story began with the gentle spark of something small.

One woman. One wish. One ripple of hope.

Sue bravely faced Parkinson’s and left her daughter, Wendy, with a simple, powerful request:

“Never stop fighting for a cure.”

In 2018, Wendy Chase turned that wish into purpose. With 26 years in biopharma, she’s helped bring breakthrough treatments to patients across the globe. But Parkinson’s made it personal. Wendy lost her mom. Her godfather is still fighting. Her husband Rob’s aunt is, too.

She’s seen the heartbreak—and the hope that science can bring. With Rob by her side and a growing community behind her, Wendy is all in—committed to chasing the cure, one small, bold step at a time.

What Sets Us Apart:

We’re proud to Team Fox, the grassroots arm of The Michael J. Fox Foundation, the global leader in Parkinson’s research. Since 2006, Team Fox has raised over $121 million for breakthrough science.

What Makes Us Different:

100% volunteer-run.
No salaries. No overhead.
All proceeds. Every dollar. Straight to the science.

Sue loved butterflies. They symbolize beautiful signs of transformation. We believe that’s how breakthroughs begin: with something small and full of hope.

We carry Sue’s wish forward—graceful as a butterfly, bold as the science we’re here to fund.

Join us. Together, let’s chase the cure—and end Parkinson’s.
