Almost everyone knows someone who has been diagnosed with or is responsible for caring for a loved one with Alzheimer’s. I personally have a grandparent with  Alzheimer’s disease and have seen first-hand the tremendous toll this disease can wreck on a family. As future healthcare professionals, we are uniquely tied to this disease and uniquely poised to help end it. 

The ultimate goal of the Alzheimer’s Association is to provide support and research funding so that no individual, family or community has to endure devastating illness ever again. By joining our cause, you are providing both funding and hope that our research will eventually pay off and that we will be able to put an end to this horrific disease.
