Alzheimer’s disease is tragic and irreversible and has become a national crisis and global epidemic. Having witnessed the enormous emotional, medical, and financial challenges it has created for friends and family caring for their loved ones with dementia has caused me to be a part of finding a solution. Through my support at the Alzheimer’s Association, I feel connected to many in our community that are experiencing this tragic diagnosis. I want to be with them in finding a treatment and one day: A CURE!
Support the Fight Against Alzheimer’s
The Alzheimer’s Association leads the way to end Alzheimer’s and all other dementia — by accelerating global research, driving risk reduction and early detection, and maximizing quality care and support. The California Central Coast Chapter is seeking the support of its community to help make a difference in our mission to end Alzheimer’s and all other dementia. Your support is critical in allowing our chapter to continue providing free educational programs, support services and care consultations throughout our tri-county region, while also supporting critical research toward a cure. Get Involved: To make a donation, become an event sponsor, participate in one of our fundraisers such as The Walk to End Alzheimer’s® or The Longest Day®, or learn more about volunteer opportunities, visit our website at alz.org/cacentral. For around-the-clock support and information, the Alzheimer’s Association 24/7 Helpline (800.272.3900) is available to people living with dementia, caregivers, families and the public.
Walk to End Alzheimer’s
Organized every year in more than 600 communities across America, the Walk to End Alzheimer’s is the world’s biggest event to attract attention and funds for Alzheimer’s research, care, and support. In the Central Coast – which includes Santa Barbara, Ventura, Santa Maria, and San Luis Obispo – the Alzheimer’s Association has a goal of raising $750,000 in 2021 and hopes to increase its fundraising to $787,500 in 2022.
