There has never been a more critical time to support the Alzheimer’s Association. Demand for programs, services and education for those living with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias is on the rise. In Washington there are currently 110,000 individuals over the age of 65 with Alzheimer’s, and an estimated 5,500 to 11,000 with younger onset Alzheimer’s. There are 10 million baby boomers who will develop this disease in the course of their lifetimes.
Each day it’s our privilege to work with individuals and families affected by Alzheimer’s and related dementias. During this fast-paced event, a family caregiver offers personal insight into the positive impact our programs have on families and on Washington’s healthcare community.
The event is free, but at the program’s conclusion, guests are given the opportunity to reinforce their commitment to the Alzheimer’s Association by making a contribution.
Most of all, we want guests to be inspired and leave with a lasting impression of the crucial work of the Alzheimer’s Association.
To reserve your seat, contact Annie Rehn at annie.rehn@alz.org or 206.529.3874.
There is no charge to attend. Guests will be asked to help address the growing needs of our community by making a contribution at the conclusion of the breakfast.
