Their commitment: "Through our numerous partnerships and matching fund affiliations within the Parkinson's community, we can guarantee that for every dollar donated to The Parkinson Alliance, two dollars will go directly to Parkinson's disease research." "Martin and Margaret Tuchman, and his brother Herbert, started the Princeton, NJ-based Tuchman Foundation to reach out to corporations for donations. The Parkinson Alliance was formed to raise money through private contributions and fundraising events." "The Tuchman Foundation currently matches every dollar raised, and The Parkinson Alliance leverage contributions by challenging the major national Parkinson's organizations to match the donations and award pilot study program grants to qualified research projects that will use the money for the initial studies needed to qualify for NIH funding." "Additionally, Martin Tuchman is the only person who sits on the boards of all three national Parkinson's organizations with scientific advisory boards. This has helped to eliminate the competition that usually exists among non-profit organizations. By pooling the donations, the Tuchmans have maximized the effectiveness of contributions." "To learn how donated dollars grow, visit our About Us page." The Parkinson Alliance is a 501 (C)(3) non-profit organization.
