Walk to End Alzheimer's
Text Size controlsNormal font sizeMedium font sizeLarge font size

The Walk to End Alzheimer's is the nation’s largest event to raise awareness and funds for Alzheimer's care, support and research.

The six walks held throughout the 17 counties served by the Northeastern New York chapter are the key funding source for the services we offer to the more than 67,000 families in our local communities dealing with Alzheimer's disease and related dementia, in addition to helping fund critical research toward new treatments and an eventual cure.

Teams make a successful 
Walk to End Alzheimer's
.
Corporate, family, organization and school teams, often formed to honor someone touched by Alzheimer's, generate fun and excitement leading up to and at our Walks. Team captains and co-captains are the recruiters and ringmasters. Many companies and organizations sponsor more than one team, creating a little "friendly" competition. To learn more about team fundraising, email infoneny@alz.org
. To sign up as a team captain, follow a Walk link below.

 Walk participants are touched and surprised by the outpouring of support and generosity they find for the cause. Plus, we make fundraising easy by providing plenty of ideas and techniques to help you meet your goals, including easy online and social media tools. To learn more about our toolkits, visit any of the Walk sites listed below.
