In April the Greater Illinois Chapter hosted three Reason to Hope Events in Bloomington, Chicago and Oak Brook. All told, more than 375 dedicated business leaders, friends and supports of the Alzheimer’s Association attended. This event, which features speakers who are in the early stages of the disease and their caregivers, is a one-hour luncheon that honors everyone who is impacted by memory loss. To date the 2012 Reason to Hope luncheons have raised more than $156,000. We are still accepting donations, contact your local office today. We wish to thank everyone who made these events special! Thank you and see you in 2013!
