Teaming up against Alzhiemer’s

Teaming up against Alzhiemer’s

Strong, loving and understanding, my mom was the most important influence in my life. Ten years ago my world was turned upside down when she was diagnosed with younger-onset Alzheimer’s at the age of 52.
My wife Whitney and I participate in the Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s® to honor my mom and to raise awareness and funds to fight this terrible disease. Please join us and register today. Every dollar we raise helps to advance the care, support and research efforts of the Alzheimer’s Association®.
Sincerely,
Chris R.

IMPORTANT: Matching gift challenge just announced

IMPORTANT: Matching gift challenge just announced

Thank you for being such an important member of the Alzheimer’s Association community. I want to share a very exciting opportunity to make your gift go twice as far in the fight against Alzheimer’s disease.
The Kahlert Family Foundation has agreed to give$210,000 to the Alzheimer’s Association if we can raise that same amount. Greg and Roberta Kahlert admire the Association’s work to advance research while providing care and support to those living with the disease. So today, any amount you donate can go twice as far toward our mission to eliminate Alzheimer’s disease through the advancement of research; to provide and enhance care and support for all affected; and to reduce the risk of dementia through the promotion of brain health.
This matching gift challenge is a special opportunity for you to make one gift and have twice the impact.When you donate today, your gift of $35 can become $70, a gift of $60 can become $120 — or your especially generous gift of $120 can become $240.
Alzheimer’s disease is a growing epidemic. One in three seniors in the United States dies with the disease, and it kills more people than breast and prostate cancer combined. That’s why your support of this limited-time opportunity is critical. Please help us make this matching gift challenge a success with your generous donation today. Thank you.
