Alzheimer's Memory Walk

The mission of the Alzheimer's Association Memory Walk is to raise awareness and funds, to enhance the quality of life of all persons affected by Alzheimer's disease and related disorders through compassionate, comprehensive services, effective advocacy, research, and access to current information and resources. In Toledo, Ohio this year's Alzheimer's Memory Walk is on September 23, 2007 at the Toledo Zoo and I plan to participate and sponsor my son. My grandmother died because of Alzheimer's and my walking is honoring her memory while raising much need funds to find a desperately need cure. With the aging of Americans Alzheimer's is an explosion about to happen with dire consequences and a cure is desperately needed. If you know 9 or 10 people who will walk and you have the time and desire please volunteer as a Memory Walk Team Captain. As Team Captain you will receive a Team Captain Kit that will have tips to help you form successful teams. So register early to ensure ample time to assemble and organize your team. Please visit memory walk website for the latest information, easy registration and find a walk feature. The Alzheimer's Memory Walk is a worthy cause and one way that we can get the message out about this devastating disease and raise funds so that one day a crue will be found. Please walk or volunteer for this important event and help make this year's Alzheimer's Memory Walk a successful one.
