As we recognize caregivers – the unsung heroes of the Alzheimer’s disease epidemic – during National Family Caregivers Month, I hope you’ll consider making a donation as a tribute to everything they do.
Cynthia Foster is one of the more than 15 million people in the United States caring for an individual with Alzheimer’s or another dementia. A devoted wife, mother and grandmother, Cynthia credits the Alzheimer’s Association with helping her move forward after her husband Karel Samsom’s devastating diagnosis.
“We joined a group that helped us confront Alzheimer’s disease and face our challenges,” Cynthia explains. “No one tells you what to do when you get home after the diagnosis, but the Association does. That was such a dark time for us, and I was so grateful for their support.”
With your generosity, we can provide Cynthia, and millions like her, with much-needed resources. Whether they connect with us online, over the phone or in person, we’re here to help.
Please give today so we can continue to care for those who care for others.
