Our Team Story
My dad was one of the 50 million people worldwide living with Alzheimer's when I started this fundraiser. Sadly, he passed away in 2023 and has now joined his mom and they now represent the group of 1 in 3 seniors that dies each year with dementia.
I plan to honor him by joining the fight to End Alzheimer's disease and participating in The Longest Day. I will unite with thousands of The Longest Day participants on June 20-the summer solstice- for a day fundraising and of awareness on the longest day of light! Together we fight on #TheLongest Day to #ENDALZ!
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, 16 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!
