Walking BIG for Parkinson’s Disease

Walking BIG for Parkinson's Disease Event

Join RVNAhealth for our first annual ‘Walking BIG for Parkinson’s’ walk on Saturday morning, September 7th in downtown Ridgefield.  We’ll be walking to raise money, spread awareness, and celebrate RVNAhealth Parkinson’s Center’s first full year supporting individuals and families affected by Parkinson’s in our community.  Funds raised by the walk will help bring continued Parkinson’s education, therapy, and support to the community and help subsidize treatment and programs for those needing financial support.

This event is a great opportunity to honor and support those living with Parkinson’s disease and is a great outing for the whole family to participate in. Grab your friends, family, and co-workers, and come out to support a great cause.

Register by August 30th

Registration is $40 per adult, with kids ages 12 and under free. All participants will receive a T-shirt, lunch, refreshments, and dessert.  Music will be provided by Big Daddy.

Celebrating Theresa Santoro & 25 Years of Leadership

Autumn Dinner. Celebrating Theresa Santoro's 25 years of leadership.

The RVNAhealth Board of Directors, Leadership Team, and the Autumn Dinner Committee invite you to join us at the annual RVNAhealth Autumn Dinner on Thursday, September 26th.

The event, filled with fun and celebration of the meaningful impact RVNAhealth has on the communities it serves, will be held at Le Chateau in South Salem, NY. Each year, the funds raised at this event are critical to our delivery of compassionate healthcare, hospice care, public health services, and wellness programs that we provide across 35+ Connecticut communities.

We are excited for a special event this year, as we honor our President & CEO, Theresa Santoro, in recognizing her 25 years of service and visionary leadership. Joining the agency as a visiting nurse 25 years ago, she leads an organization that continues to thrive under her direction. RVNAhealth has grown to become a regional healthcare provider, serving more than 5,000 patients and clients annually across western Connecticut.

The evening will include cocktails and a gourmet dinner, our back-by-popular-demand “Date Night for a Year” raffle, fabulous live auction items, and more. Please see our 2023 Autumn Dinner recap and photo gallery here for a taste of the great evening that awaits you!
