Stars Shine For Remember Me Thursday® Global Pet Adoption Awareness Campaign
RANCHO SANTA FE, California, Sept. 17, 2018 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — This month, Helen Woodward Animal Center will once again unite with animal welfare proponents and organizations worldwide for the 6th Annual Remember Me Thursday®. Honored on the fourth Thursday of September, the campaign asks pet lovers and animal rescue groups to create an unstoppable, integrated voice advocating for homeless pets to live in forever homes, not die waiting for them. Grassroots candle-lighting ceremonies and a global avalanche of social media buzz will shine a light on the millions of animals still awaiting adoption and encourage communities to opt to adopt and reduce the millions of homeless pets euthanized each year. As in previous years, some very big names are stepping forward to lend their support to the cause, including five-time GRAMMY winner, Wynonna Judd, who has been named the 2018 Official Spokesperson for the campaign. Helen Woodward Animal Center encourages the world to join with these philanthropic celebrities and to be a part of this very special day, Thursday, September 27th, 2018.
As the campaign’s 2018 Official Spokesperson, Wynonna Judd is an American music icon, a five-time GRAMMY winner and New York Times bestselling author. A life-long philanthropist, Wynonna is always using her voice to champion causes she believes in and is a lifelong animal lover. When not on tour, Wynonna can be found hanging out with the many beloved animals on her farm. She has 34 in total — including dogs, cats, horses and buffalo. Her dog, Starlet, and the love they share can be witnessed in Wynonna’s Remember Me Thursday® public service announcement (PSA) seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68ZNXQVMGJM.
Regarding her love of animals, Judd stated: “All my life I’ve felt a special bond with animals. I don’t know what I would do without my own rescue pets and their unconditional love. Sadly, there are animals in shelters around the country still waiting anxiously to give their love to someone. On Remember Me Thursday®, please take a moment to advocate for and remember these special animals. Speak up for pet adoption!”

Remember Me Thursday® was established in 2013 by Helen Woodward Animal Center President and CEO Mike Arms. Moved by the staggering statistic of the 2.7 million1 homeless pets who lose their lives each year in the U.S., Arms put out a call to rescue organizations in an attempt to create a global awareness campaign. As creator of the International Pet Adoptathon and the International Home 4 the Holidays® program (placing over 14 million pets in homes since 1999), he was able to send out an expansive request and the response was significant.
Now in its sixth year, Remember Me Thursday® has been supported by 180 countries with hundreds of thousands of individuals and more than 700 separate animal welfare organizations around the globe holding candle-lighting ceremonies of their own, spreading the message on social media, or lighting a virtual candle. The enormous swell of celebrity support has resulted in the topic trending each year on both Facebook and Twitter, garnering more than 1 billion social media impressions since its start.
To be a part of the 2018 Remember Me Thursday® campaign, individuals and animal welfare organizations are encouraged to get the entire world talking about pet adoption on Thursday, September 27th, by tweeting, tagging, posting and sharing the beauty and life-saving significance of pet adoption using the hashtag #RememberMeThursday and @hwac. Animal-lovers can win life-saving funds, toys and food for adoptable pets looking for forever families at their favorite non-profit, pet adoption organization.

Parkinson’s Foundation Extends Bilingual National Helpline Hours
NEW YORK and MIAMI, Sept. 18, 2018 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The Parkinson’s Foundation announced today that its toll-free Helpline, 1-800-4PD-INFO, will extend its hours, answering calls in English and Spanish, to help make life better for people with Parkinson’s disease (PD) and their families. The Helpline, staffed by trained Parkinson’s information specialists from various health professions, will respond to callers from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. ET Monday through Friday.
“With one million Americans living with Parkinson’s disease and growing, we are making our Helpline more available to the PD community by extending Helpline hours and providing support to English and Spanish speaking communities,” said John L. Lehr, president and chief executive officer of the Parkinson’s Foundation. “Our Helpline connects us to people with Parkinson’s, caregivers, family members and healthcare professionals and allows us to provide answers to the most difficult Parkinson’s questions, while offering emotional support and individualized attention.”
The Parkinson’s Foundation Helpline provides current disease information; medical issues including symptoms and treatments; health and social care; emotional support; and referrals to local health professionals.
“After speaking with the Helpline I was able to ensure that my father was getting expert care,” said Gary, Helpline caller. “It’s nice to have a compass like the Parkinson’s Foundation that can help guide you through the waters.”
Helpline specialists can also inform callers about the wellness and exercise classes offered in their area and guide them through resources that explain vital Parkinson’s symptoms and topics — from cognitive changes and medications to caregiving. The Helpline can also mail callers the Foundation’s free “Aware in Care” hospitalization kit, which prepares people with Parkinson’s for a planned or unplanned hospital stay.
“Answering Parkinson’s questions is only part of what we do. We truly care about the people we serve and their families,” said Adolfo Diaz, Parkinson’s Foundation senior director of patient services, who manages the Helpline. “Whether you just received a diagnosis, need a referral to expert care or are caring for a family member, we are here to help you understand your condition, your care and the latest research on how you can live a better life with Parkinson’s.”
The Parkinson’s Foundation Helpline answers approximately 20,000 calls annually.
