About Memory Walk
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.
Memory Walk provides funds for much needed services like respite care, helpline and educational programs. The money you raise for Memory Walk stays here to provide hope and help to families in Northwest Ohio.
