About Molly Donelan-Cupka
Molly founded Up Ending Parkinsons in 2012, and she is determined to spread the addictive sport that is rock climbing throughout the Parkinsons community. She’s also dedicated to funding research and sharing simple, everyday adaptations that can slow the progression of Parkinsons Disease.
Molly also works as the Director of Sportrock Climbing Centers, Alexandria. Molly attended the University of California, Irvine, where she studied Psychology and Neuropsychology, competed on the varsity swim team, and fell in love with rock climbing.
These days, Molly can be found hanging out with her husband and their kids or doing any number of physical activities: running, climbing, hiking, mountain biking, ice baths, yoga, or any other challenge she can dream up.
Visitors and newcomers are always welcome. There is no admission charge. And for now, we are streaming the presentation portion of these monthly meetings on Zoom – details are in our newsletter.
