Now is the moment we've been waiting for.
With new treatments emerging in the fight against Alzheimer’s and all other dementia, now is the time for hope. Now is the time for action. Help us keep the momentum going in your community at the Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s®, the world’s largest fundraiser to fight the disease.
As Rotarians, we dedicate ourselves to Service Above Self and to taking on challenges that impact our local and global communities. Today, over 7.4 million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s disease, and nearly 13 million family members and friends provide unpaid care. It is estimated that 1 in 3 seniors has Alzheimer's or another dementia.
This cause is deeply personal to me. This year marks my 11th year supporting Alzheimer’s research, and my very first year stepping up as Team Captain. Our team has set a bold target to raise a minimum of $4,000 for crucial research, local outreach and caregiver support services.
