BlogHelp put the life back into living this Giving Tuesday Help put the life back into living this Giving Tuesday Posted Date : Nov 17, 2025 For Steve and Debbie Longchamps, living with Parkinson’s also means putting the fight into living. After a work accident that cost Steve his leg and a Parkinson’s diagnosis that followed soon after, life could have felt like two knockdowns in a row. But through Parkinson Canada’s CareFinder resource, Steve found Rock Steady Boxing. And with it, he found the power to move, connect, and live a life of possibility again. Every time he puts on his gloves, it’s a reminder that living with Parkinson’s isn’t about surrender. It’s about showing up, finding purpose, and keeping at it. This Giving Tuesday, you can be in their corner. From right now until midnight on Giving Tuesday, your donation will go FOUR TIMES as far thanks to a generous legacy match from Judy Hazlett’s estate.
