Kevin turned his passion for endurance sports into a Team23 fundraiser for the Kirk Gibson Foundation’s fight against Parkinson’s.

As a physical therapist, he has seen firsthand the physical, emotional and social impact Parkinson’s can have on individuals and families. He wanted to do more. So, he combined his love for fitness with a cause he wanted to support.

But as Kevin says, “It doesn’t have to be an Iron Man.”

Kevin’s story is a reminder that there are many ways to make a difference. Whether it’s a race, a golf outing, a community event, or an idea all your own, Team23 gives you the opportunity to fundraise your way.

Every Team23 fundraiser helps support the Kirk Gibson Foundation’s mission of redefining what it means to live with Parkinson’s.
