I'm walking to help reclaim the future for millions. By participating in the Alzheimer's Association Walk to End Alzheimer's®, I'm continuing to be committed to raising awareness and funds for Alzheimer’s research, care and support. I am walking and supporting the Alzheimer's Association in honor of my amazing mother, Char. She has been officially diagnosed with Alzheimer's and, as you can imagine, it was NOT good news. It makes me sick watching her slowly lose her memory, but thanks to research and medication, it has slowed. I continue to support the Association because I see first hand what they do for those living wth Alzheimers...and I have to keep fighting to my daughter doesn't have to go through this with ME and others one day.
Currently, more than 5 million Americans have Alzheimer's and that number is expected to grow to as many as 16 million by 2050. Our future is at risk - our families are at risk - unless we can find a way to change the course of this disease.
I would SO APPRECIATE your support as I work to do my part! Please make a donation to help the Alzheimer's Association advance research into methods of treatment, prevention and, ultimately, a cure for Alzheimer's. For the millions already affected by the disease, the Association offers care, education, support and resources in communities nationwide.
Locally, I am doing what I can. Please, I need your your help.
Thank you!
