The Alzheimer's Association Memory Walk® is our national signature event and brings together family, friends, caregivers and concerned community members — who all want to make a difference. Since 1989, Memory Walk has raised more than $200 million to help those battling Alzheimer's disease.
2009 was another record breaking year for Memory Walk. Together, we raised $330,000 to support Alzheimer's programs and research. The more than 2,000 Central New Yorkers who walked showed us that there truly is strength in numbers!
