Volunteers Needed for Walk to End Alzheimer’s – Sept. 27 at Ellwood A Mattson Lower Harbor Park
As you know, Alzheimer’s disease impacts not only those diagnosed, but also their families, loved ones, friends, and colleagues. It touches all of us in one way or another.
Please volunteer a few hours to support the Walk to End Alzheimer’s on Saturday, September 27 at Ellwood A Mattson Lower Harbor Park. Event coordinator Kimberly LeTourneau will be on-site starting at 8:00 AM, and we’ll kick off the event with:
· Registration at 9:00 AM
· Walk begins at 10:00 AM (warm up and dance routines at 9:45 AM)
· Clean-up and take-down by 11:30 AM
This event is so much more than a walk—it’s an uplifting and inspiring experience that brings together a community united in compassion, connection, and hope. As the country’s largest support group of its kind, it’s also our annual fundraiser, so we’ll be collecting donations at the event and could really use help with that as well.
We’d love to count on your team to bring your energy, enthusiasm, and support to help make this event a success. If you’re able to join us, please let us know. Contact: Kimberly LeTourneau (kletourneau@alz.org)
