Fundraising Progress
My Story
I lost my Dad is 2009 to Alzheimer's Disease. One of the last coherent things he said to me just 3 months before he died was, "With Alzheimer's there is no reason!" My mom has also been diagnosed with dementia-Alzheimer's type. Because of the absolute havoc dementia can wreak, 2023 was one of the most difficult years of my life. I am setting my goal this year at $2023.00 to turn it around! I am honored to participate by hiking for the Longest Day again this year by hiking with my Hike2REMEMBER team. If you would like me to carry the name of a loved one of yours to the peak, please let me know.
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!
