Happy Father's Day from your friends at HAPS! 👔💙

Make donation to HAPS through August 31st, and it will be doubled. HAPS Advisory Board members Rob Kerr and Jim Thorp have issued a donation challenge: they will match contributions made to HAPS up to $15,000 through August 31st. This means your donation to HAPS will be doubled and have twice the impact for the local Parkinson’s community.

Donating is easy: visit https://haps.org/support.

HAPS is proud to include Galveston, the birthplace of Juneteenth, in our service area, and to list amongst our friends, the dearly departed Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee, who championed its inclusion has a federally recognized holiday. Freedom means freedom for all.

HAPS offices are closed today, June 19th, in observance of Juneteenth.
