Founder · Diagnosed 2012
In 2012, Dan O'Brien — a South Florida musician — was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. With no health insurance, the cost of medications was devastating. Rather than accept that as the norm, Dan created DOB Parkinson's Charity: a place where 100% of every dollar donated goes directly to patients and families who need it most.

Every person's journey with Parkinson's is different. We provide tailored support — financial, educational, and personal — to meet you exactly where you are.
When a storm hits,
we've got you.
Putting up shutters, clearing debris, evacuating safely — these become dangerous tasks when Parkinson's limits your mobility. Our program connects patients with volunteers before the storm arrives. Don't wait until it's too late.
