Dear List:
While I did not happen to see Jeopardy, I can tell you a
bit about Holly and her Foundation. To begin, Holly is Holly Robinson
Peete and she is an actress. Her husband is a Philadelphia Eagles
Quarterback. Holly's father played "Gordon" on Sesame Street for many
years and he has had Parkinson's for about 15-16 years now.
Holly and Rodney realized that they were fortunate enough
to help her father pay for medications, but knew that so many people were making
choices between buying food or buying needed medications. They set up a
Foundation called HollyRod and it is intended to assist people who could not
afford to purchase medications.
HollyRod Foundation, Inc.
11901 Santa Monica Blvd.
Suite 595
Los Angeles, CA 90025
ph # 310-385-1599
HollyRod has worked side by side with NPF the past few years. Last
year, Holly Robinson Peete was a featured speaker at many of our
"Stretching the Bounds" conferences that were in various locations throughout
the U.S. Please feel free to contact their Foundation should you or any
other person with PD need assistance in paying for medications.
Sincerely,
Bonnie Cunningham
