My name is Amoré Möller, and I’m a 22-year-old Data Science student at Stellenbosch University. 

I have volunteered to be a Mover & Shaker to raise funds for Parkinson’s ZA, a non-profit public benefit organization, aimed at improving the overall quality of life for people impacted by Parkinson’s Disease.

I have signed up to run my first marathon this year — the Cape Town Marathon — and I want to dedicate this journey to my mother, who was diagnosed with Young Onset Parkinson’s disease at the age of 45.

Over the years, I have watched my mom's quality of life steadily decline. Last year, she underwent Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery, a decision that brought both hope and challenges. Witnessing her strength and resilience has profoundly changed how I see movement — something so many of us take for granted. It has inspired me to move not just for myself, but for those who can’t.

Becoming a Mover & Shaker would allow me to channel my personal motivation into raising awareness and funds for a cause that is deeply meaningful to me. I’m committed to training, fundraising, and sharing this journey to help make a difference in the lives of people living with Parkinson’s.

Please support my drive to raise funds!
