In 2007 Memory Walk raised more than $35 million nationally and was held at more than 570 locations across the country.
2007 Memory Walk
We had wonderful weather for our 2007 walks and we're still ON THE MOVE to end Alzheimer's! Our sincere thanks to everyone for their participation and support. Your contributions help us continue to offer valuable programs and services to people in our Chapter's nine county area. The South Central Wisconsin Chapter raised over $300,000 last year, thanks to you!
