The decision about how, when, and where to join in fighting against Alzheimer’ s/dementia is a very personal one based upon how you’d like to make an impact and which aspects of helping individuals and families impacted by dementia you’d like to support.
Below are the organizations that I’ve chosen to partner with and volunteer for because I believe that they are doing great good. I believe in the programs these non-profit organizations offer to enhance the lives of persons coping with the disease and the work they do to eradicate it in the future.
