Why We Ride: Many of us have had family members and loved ones who have been impacted by the effects of ALZ.
We are inspired by the strength of the more than 6 million Americans living with this disease, and the over 11 million family members and friends who provide them with care. I am also inspired by science and pray we can find a cure someday soon, especially for those who have early onset.
This year, I want to help support my friend Heidi who is currently caring for her sister, Andrea and Johanna who is caring for her husband.
Right now, there is no shortage of ideas in Alzheimer’s research — only dollars. Which is why we are asking for your support. We are participating on the Ride to End ALZ®, a fully-supported, premier cycling event that supports the Alzheimer’s Association’s efforts to discover methods of treatment and prevention for Alzheimer’s disease.
With each mile we ride, we are raising funds to advance research toward the first survivor of Alzheimer’s. Thank you for cheering us on.
Cheer Me On!
