The Parkinson's Resource Organization 15th Annual Autumn Gala took place on October 2, 2004 at the St. Regis Hotel & Spa in Los Angeles. BroadwayWorld was on hand to capture all the glitz and glamour just for you!

Parkinson's Resource Organization is a 501(C)(3) nonprofit organization formed in 1990, having a national outreach and headquartered in Palm Desert, CA. The Parkinson's Resource Organization is a lifeline for the families of people with Parkinson's disease. Being a caregiver is a major lifestyle change that often comes without any prior warning.

The funds raised by the annual Autumn Gala event represent a significant portion of Parkinson's Resource Organization's annual program budget. PRO has support groups throughout Southern California and an outreach, by way of a monthly newsletter, throughout the U.S. and the world. These dollars help PRO offer these programs at no cost to the families with Parkinson's.
