Fundraising Progress
My Story
I'm participating in The Longest Day to show my love for all those affected by Alzheimer’s disease. On June 20, I am joining others around the world and doing what I love to honor people living with Alzheimer's, their caregivers, and those lost to the disease, while raising funds and awareness to advance the care, support and research efforts of the Alzheimer’s Association.
In 2006, my Dad passed away due to complications from Alzheimer's Disease. For those who have had loved ones who have faced this disease, you know how terrible this disease is. The statistics are frightening and there is a huge need for more research, education, and assistance for those who are facing Alzheimer's. I am hopeful that instead of it taking memories away from so many people that one day we can say the disease itself is a memory. Please, help join the fight to end Alzheimer's Disease!
Today, an estimated 47 million people across the world are living with dementia. This number is set to skyrocket to 75 million by 2030. In the United States alone, more than 15 million caregivers generously dedicate themselves to those with Alzheimer's and dementia. These numbers will only continue to rise unless we take action.
Together, we can show those facing Alzheimer's disease they are not alone. Please make a donation to help the Alzheimer's Association advance research toward the first survivor of Alzheimer’s and provide care and support to those facing the disease today.
