Participate

VOICE the VISION Rally is a high energy event which will take place on Thursday, January 26. The event educates Eastern Iowans about Alzheimer’s disease and the Alzheimer’s Association as the leading source of help and hope.  Participation includes spending 1 hour on the phone bank at the KGAN CBS 2 and KFXA FOX 28 studios calling family, friends, colleagues, etc., asking them to pledge their support of our cause.  Proceeds raised allow the chapter to fund vital research and care and support to those affected right here in our community

To register online visit our event website or complete and mail this form.  

As a participant of the VOICE the VISION Rally, you will receive a kit with all of the tools that you need to ensure you are prepared for the hour you spend on the phone bank including a Pledge Tracking Form. If you are signed up and need additional information, e-mail Paige at paige.knebel@alz.org.

“I really enjoy the VOICE the VISION Rally because it gives me a chance to set aside an hour of my day and lend my voice to the Alzheimer's cause. By reaching out to my friends and family and asking them to make a pledge, I feel empowered as I am a part of finding a cure.” - Brittney, 2011 Participant

Tune In and Make a Donation

On January, 26 we will cover the KGAN CBS 2 and KFXA FOX 28 studios in purple from 8a.m. until 6p.m. We need you to tune in and learn more about Alzheimer's disease and what the Alzheimer's Association can do for people with the disease, their family and friends. We also hope you will consider giving us a call and pledging a donation.

Alzheimer’s disease is the 6th leading cause of death in the country and already the 5th leading cause of death in Iowa. To date, there is no cure or prevention.  In order to meet the growing needs of those in our community, we must raise funds in order to provide care and support services and continue funding the research needed to find a cure or prevention.
