Walk to End Alzheimer's

Description

This annual event takes place in order to raise funds to further the care, support and research efforts of the Alzheimer's Association. The Alzheimer's Association is a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization. All donations are tax-deductible as allowed by law. There is no registration fee for Walk. However, we ask every participant to make a personal donation and commit to raising funds to help with the fight against Alzheimer's. We do allow strollers, but for everyone's safety, we discourage skateboards, bicycles, inline skates and wheelie footwear. Depending on the Walk location rules, well-behaved dogs are welcome, but must be on a leash at all times. The Walk is a rain or shine event. However, in the case of severe weather, we will cancel. If this is the case, we will update our Walk homepage on or before the morning of the event. We need volunteers to help with set-up, clean-up, registration, water stops, Promise Garden and so much more. All interested volunteers should visit our volunteer page for more information about event day roles and responsibilities. Each registered participant will receive a Promise Garden flower. Please choose the color that best represents your connection to the disease. - Blue represents someone living with Alzheimer's or another dementia. - Purple is for those who have lost a someone to the disease. - Yellow represents someone who is currently supporting or caring for a person living with Alzheimer's. - Orange is for those who support the cause and the Association's vision of a world without Alzheimer's and all other dementia. Thank you for all you do in the fight against Alzheimer's.
