The End of Alzheimer's Starts Here

Join the Alzheimer's Association Walk to End Alzheimer's™ and unite in a movement to reclaim the future for the 294,000 people in the Delaware Valley with Alzheimer's disease or a related disorder. Since 1989, we've mobilized millions of Americans in the Alzheimer's Association Memory Walk®; now, we ask you to register for Walk to End Alzheimer's, the nation's largest event to raise awareness and funds for Alzheimer care, support and research. Together, we can end Alzheimer's disease, the nation's sixth-leading cause of death.

In 2011 in the Delaware Valley Chapter, nearly 10,000 participants and 1,000 teams raised $1.2 million in the fight against Alzheimer's disease. Please join us.
