PITTSFIELD, Mass. — Market32/Price Chopper and its trade partner, Freihofer's Baking Co., are raising money to advance treatment and help find a cure for Parkinson's disease, a neurodegenerative condition that affects nearly one million people in the United States.

 

During March and April 2025, a $.10 donation will be made to the Parkinson's Foundation with each purchase of specific Freihofer's products, specially marked with shelf tags in most stores.

 

"The Parkinson's Foundation helps people with Parkinson's disease by improving care and advancing research toward a cure," said Adrienne Casano, the Parkinson's Foundation northeast regional director. The money raised by Market 32/Price Chopper will help the foundation's mission of propelling us toward a cure. Every six minutes, someone is diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease, and we're grateful to Market32/Price Chopper and Freihofer's for supporting families in our communities impacted by Parkinson's."

 

"Parkinson's Disease is the second most common neurogenerative condition after Alzheimer's, and its cause is largely unknown," said Pam Cerrone, Market 32/Price Chopper director of community relations. "By partnering with Freihofer's, Market 32/Price Chopper hopes our customers will join us in making a meaningful impact and helping fund groundbreaking research and vital resources for those living with the disease.
