Currently, more than 6 million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s disease or other dementia and 11 million are serving as caregivers. 

Alzheimer’s isn’t stopping and neither are we. By participating in the Alzheimer’s Association Ozaukee County Walk to End Alzheimer’s, we are 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.

Both my Grandma (Anne Francis Stoll) and my Nanna (Maria Balistereri LoCoco) suffered from and ultimately died from the effects of Alzheimer’s. 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!
