Our Team Story
Welcome to our team page for The Longest Day! We are determined to help end Alzheimer’s by raising funds and awareness for the care, support and research efforts of the Alzheimer’s Association.The Longest Day is the day of the year with the most light -- the summer solstice on June 21. It's the day that people across the US have committed to fight Alzheimer's disease and we're participating in The Longest Day to advance the care, support and research efforts of the Alzheimer's Association.
We participate in The Longest Day for all who’s light in their life has been threatened by the darkness of Alzheimer’s. For Jenny, her mom, Linda, was her shining light. No matter the circumstance of life, her mom continued to show up in love and joy. This was true even in living with Alzheimer’s. Her smile and laugh a constant companion throughout their journey with the disease. Nothing could compare to the unbridled joy when, together, they immersed themselves in the moment and danced to Elvis tunes. Her mom would twirl her in circles until they both erupted in laughter. Despite the heartbreak, the struggles and eventual loss of her mom’s life, light endures. The Longest Day, summer solstice, brings us the most daylight. A reminder that we endure and together we can outshine the darkness of Alzheimer’s.
