Get to Know Wendy Chase and Rob Spalding

In early 2018, Wendy and Rob launched Chasing a Cure Parkinson’s Foundation to make a real impact in the fight against Parkinson’s.

 

Fueled by personal experiences and careers in pharmaceuticals/biotech, they are passionate champions of finding a cure, inspired by Wendy’s late mother, Sue Chase, who bravely confronted Parkinson’s.

 

Before passing in late 2018, Sue conveyed a heartfelt wish to Wendy: to "never give up" on raising funds for a cure, ensuring others wouldn't endure the same suffering. On the other side, Rob’s aunt has courageously battled Parkinson’s for over a decade.

 

Wendy and Rob refuse to settle for mere symptom management, striving to fulfill Sue’s wish and support those affected by Parkinson’s. 

​

Hence, the foundation's single, urgent goal is ending Parkinson's disease fast. 

We'd love to hear from you.
