About Us

We started TogetherForSharon® as a family for the purpose of keeping my mother, Sharon Riff Ackerman’s, memory alive and to share the message of Parkinson’s Awareness and hope for a cure.

 

“We love you, we support you, we care about you, and you are never alone!  I will advocate for you and together, our voices are STRONGER!  And I am just getting started!”

Mission

TogetherForSharon® It’s a Movement…no one is alone in this fight! In memory of my mother, Sharon created to raise awareness and hope for a cure for Parkinson’s Disease.

Goal

We started TogetherForSharon® as a family for the purpose of keeping my mother, Sharon’s, memory alive and to share the message of Parkinson’s Awareness and hope for a cure.

Purpose

TogetherForSharon® is a nonprofit organization dedicated to one singular mission: advancing a cure for Parkinson’s disease worldwide. Its founder, Dr. George Ackerman, lives by the belief:

“I am just one son, one voice, who lost his best friend and mother to Parkinson’s disease—and I never want anyone to feel as alone as we did throughout Mom’s battle.”

TogetherForSharon® was created in loving memory of George’s mother to raise awareness, inspire hope, and advocate for a cure for Parkinson’s disease. No one should face this journey alone. We are a family united in this fight, and until a cure is found, our work in advocacy, awareness, and support continues.

Sending love and support always,
Sharon’s son, George
