When you participate in Walk, your fundraising dollars fuel our mission-related initiatives of care, support and research. In addition, your actions, both through fundraising and participating in the event, help to change the level of Alzheimer’s awareness in your community. At the Walk, you can learn more about Alzheimer’s disease and the support programs and services offered by our local chapter. You will also have unique opportunities to get involved with the cause through advocacy initiatives and clinical trial enrollment.
