On Saturday, July 20th, I am running the 30 mile Pemi Loop in NH to support research to cure Alzheimer's Disease. My run will be part of AlzRun, a team of people from all over the country running challenging and magnificent trails to raise money for Cure Alzheimer's Fund.
I am running in memory of my two grandmas, Mary Fillmore and Rose Appel, who were strong, determined women with infectious laughs.
The funds we raise will go directly to Cure Alzheimer's Fund, which directs 100% of donations toward high-impact research. Our contributions will make a difference! I want to be part of breakthroughs that will cure Alzheimer’s. Please join me.
Thank you for your support!
AlzRun 2024
AlzRun will be an adventure—an opportunity to challenge ourselves with something hard and likely full of unforgettable moments of discovery, beauty, and joy. And it is a way for those of us grieving family members or loved ones afflicted with Alzheimer’s—or concerned about future generations—to share our stories and together raise money for research focused on ending Alzheimer’s. 100% of donations to Cure Alzheimer's Fund is directed quickly to the most promising research to end Alzheimer's disease. Let’s do what we can together to stop this disease.
AlzRun is a team of trail runners motivated to raise money and awareness to stop Alzheimer's, state after state, across the entire country. For those of us with loved ones affected by Alzheimer's, often spanning families and generations, finding a cure is the goal, and raising money for Cure Alzheimer's Fund is something we can do.
Our understanding of Alzheimer's has advanced profoundly in the last decade, but we still lack treatments to prevent or stop the disease. Through your donations, and donations from people like you across the country, we are hoping to get over the line to a new era of safe and effective treatments.
Donating to Cure Alzheimer's Fund makes an impact. CureAlz funding has led to many key breakthroughs in understanding the causes and pathology of Alzheimer’s disease. They are hopeful about the prospects ahead to stop this disease that affects our families and friends. And laser-focused. They award funds quickly to research that shows great promise or targets critical pieces of the puzzle, guided by an extraordinary research advisory group that brings together expertise from around the world on every aspect of Alzheimer’s Disease. 100% of donations to Cure Alzheimer's Fund goes directly to research. No overhead goes to CureAlz or the researchers' institutions.
