Parkinson Canada is recruiting a Volunteer Event Coordinator to help lead our 2025 Cornwall SuperWalk!
Superwalk is the largest annual fundraiser for Parkinson Canada, an important and ever-expanding resource for Canadians living with Parkinson’s and their care partners. SuperWalk Coordinators play a pivotal role in raising awareness and funds for people living with Parkinson’s. They champion and lead the coordination of SuperWalk in communities, from start to finish, with support from Parkinson Canada staff.
Volunteer Event Coordinators are integral to a successful event, and perform tasks such as:
- Sourcing local sponsorships and donations
- Spreading awareness about the walk in the community
- Ensuring the funds collected the day of the event are properly recorded and deposited
- Attending the walk on the event day to ensure it runs smoothly
If this sounds like a role you'd be interested in, please email volunteer@parkinson.ca - we'd love to connect with you!

Mission Statement
To empower and inspire people living with Parkinson’s and their care partners to thrive and live courageously.
Description
Parkinson’s affects more than 110,000 people in Canada, and we know that everyone’s journey is different. While there is currently no cure, at Parkinson Canada, we’re inspired by our community every day. Our vision is a world where no one is limited by Parkinson’s. And through our work, we empower and inspire people living with Parkinson’s and their care partners to thrive and live courageously.
Parkinson Canada is the national voice of Canadians living with Parkinson’s disease. From diagnosis to discovery, we guide the way for Canadians to live well with Parkinson’s disease through education, advocacy, and support services. Our National Research Program funds innovative research to search for better treatments and a cure. A national registered charity, Parkinson Canada fulfils its mission through the generosity of donors and is an accredited organization under the Imagine Canada Standards Program.
