Dear Friend, Thanksgiving is a time to count our blessings and reflect on what we cherish most: family, friends, health and happiness. I'm very thankful for the generosity of the many friends who support our work, like a San Francisco foundation, which chooses to remain anonymous, that will donate $170,000 to research programs if we raise that same amount online by December 15. Their pledge means that your gift of $50 can be worth $100, and $100 could equal $200 – any amount you give by December 15 could be worth twice as much in the fight against Alzheimer's disease and other dementias. |

For millions of Americans whose lives have been touched by Alzheimer's, the holidays can be tinged with sadness. This devastating disease robs people of their memories, their independence and ultimately, their lives. For friends and family, it means heartbreaking decisions about care as the person's mind slowly slips away. Your gift will help to advance research to end Alzheimer's and dementia while enhancing care and support for those who are living with the disease. Reaching our vision of a world without Alzheimer's disease – wouldn't that be something to be thankful for? Please give as generously as you can by December 15. Thank you. Sincerely, |
