Dear Family and Friends,
We met the match!
In honor of Father's Day, and in loving memory of our father Marshall, and all fathers and caregivers worldwide — we met The Judy Fund $100,000 match!
The Judy Fund family wishes a happy Father's Day to all of the fathers and men who have influenced and shaped our lives. This Father's Day is bittersweet for the Gelfand family, as three generations remember our father and celebrate a life well lived. His unrelenting determination to change the course of Alzheimer's and dedication to protecting future generations from the disease has made a lasting difference in the lives of millions of families, and his legacy will outlive us all.
Your generous gifts continue to help advance an agenda that Marshall was in continued support of: the Women's Alzheimer's Research Initiative (WARI) in its efforts to investigate and illuminate the disease that overwhelmingly strikes women. Thank you for moving this landmark research forward to find ways to ensure that our mothers', grandmothers' and sisters' experience with this disease is not passed on to our daughters and granddaughters. This is the core inspiration and work of The Judy Fund.
Thank you, as always, for the many ways you support The Judy Fund and the fight against Alzheimer's disease. We could not do this work without you!
Sincerely,
Elizabeth Gelfand Stearns
Chair, The Judy Fund
