The Shake It Up Australia Parkinson’s Legacy League is a special community of visionary supporters who have chosen to make a lasting impact in the lives of people living with Parkinson’s and shine a light on research. By including a gift to Shake It Up in their Will, these generous individuals are helping to shape a future where better treatments, and ultimately a cure, are within reach. 

Leaving a legacy gift to Parkinson’s research is more than a donation, but a powerful act of hope! It is a lasting and meaningful way to support the 200,000 Australian’s currently living with Parkinson’s, while also leaving a legacy that will benefit future generations.  

No matter the amount, every planned gift to Shake It Up Australia will make an enormous difference. Your generosity will fuel the work of Australia’s leading Parkinson’s researchers, empowering them to focus on uncovering the cause of the disease, developing more effective treatments and ultimately finding the cure. 

We are grateful to our Parkinson’s Legacy League members for their commitment to our vision: a brighter tomorrow and a world without Parkinson’s. 

All individuals who notify us of their intention to leave a bequest are invited to join the Shake It Up Australia Foundation Legacy League.  

As a member of the Legacy League, you will receive: 

  • Personalised updates on the progress and impact of Parkinson’s research funded by the Foundation
  • Invitations to exclusive events, including research briefings and donor gatherings
  • Recognition in our publications and website (with your permission)
  • A certificate of appreciation acknowledging your commitment to our mission
