September 21 is World Alzheimer's Day — a global movement to raise awareness and help in the fight against Alzheimer's disease. In recognition of World Alzheimer's Day and the more than 5 million Americans living with Alzheimer's, a generous donor who wishes to remain anonymous has agreed to TRIPLE match all gifts made to this challenge before September 25, up to a total of $180,000, in honor of their mother who lived with Alzheimer's for 10 years. Their gift will help further critical Alzheimer's research.
World Alzheimer's Day Triple Matching Gift Challenge!
Please join this global effort to raise awareness and support for the fight to end Alzheimer's with a contribution now, while you can triple your impact on our work to advance care and support and accelerate critical Alzheimer's research. Learn more: https://bit.ly/3iIWGXh
