The Walk to End Alzheimer’s® in the San Fernando Valley is this Sunday… are you ready? Here’s a quick checklist to make sure you’ve used all the tools available:
If you haven't reached your fundraising goal don't be discouraged because it's not too late! We will be accepting donations until December 31, 2016! Need some help? Here are a few suggestions:
- Follow up with those folks who said they would write you a check, but haven't gotten to it yet.
- Ask your gym buddies, folks at your place of worship, that nice lady on the corner you say "hi" to every morning. Now is the time to leave no stone unturned.
- Send another email to your contacts.
