Fundraising Progress
My Story
As many of you know, several years ago, my husband David was diagnosed with early or younger onset Alzheimer's disease, the same disease that his cousin Steve suffered from. We are grateful of the early diagnosis and the support we have received along the way from our family and friends. David is doing well and we are living with Alzheimer's.
For those of you who know me, asking for help is difficult for me, but the more I share our story, the easier it becomes. I want thank everyone who donated last year. I raised nearly $15,000 and our team raised $40,000. I was overwhelmed with your generosity.
So of course, for this year, I need to up the ante and go bigger. In addition to the June, 2023 Spin for a Cure ride alongside my fellow Peloton friends, I will also be running a half marathon in April all to raise money and awareness for Alzheimer's.
I hope you will support David and I on this journey.
The Longest Day is the day of the year with the most light — the summer solstice. And it's the day I have committed to fight Alzheimer's disease! I’m participating in The Longest Day, a fundraising event to advance the care, support and research efforts of the Alzheimer's Association.
Today, an estimated 50 million people worldwide are living with Alzheimer's or other dementias, including more than 6 million Americans. In the United States alone, more than 11 million friends and family members are providing their care. We must take action now, or these numbers will continue to rise.
Stand up to the darkness of Alzheimer’s and make a donation today to help the Alzheimer's Association support all those facing the disease. Thank you!
