Why We Walk: On behalf of the more than six million Americans living with Alzheimer's disease and their over 11 million caregivers, thank you for supporting this important cause. As an Alzheimer's Association Walk to End Alzheimer's® National Team, Merrill Gardens will form teams and raise funds and awareness for events across the country, earning national recognition benefits in return. Every dollar your company raises makes a difference in the lives of those facing this devastating disease, and helps bring us closer to the vision of the Alzheimer's Association®: a world without Alzheimer's and all other dementia®.
