Family and Friends -
Since joining the Alzheimer's Association last year, I've learned so much not just about the devastating impact of this disease but also about the unbelievable progress that has been made over these past few years. This is due in no small part to the support from everyday people who are committed to ending this disease. This year I'm walking to honor especially my daughter Maria's great-grandmas, Maria Velasquez and Ellen Wade, who were both impacted by dementia during the last few years of their lives.
Alzheimer’s isn’t stopping and neither are we. By participating in the Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s, I’m raising funds and awareness to advance the fight against this disease — funds that allow the Alzheimer’s Association to provide 24/7 care and support while accelerating critical research.
Families facing Alzheimer’s and all other dementia need us now more than ever — and with your help, we can be there for them. Please make a donation or register as a participant and start your own fundraising. Together, we can end Alzheimer’s disease.
Thank you (and hope to see you there if you're in the Chicago area)!
