What Can You Do?
You can help the Alzheimer’s Association by sponsoring a participant or becoming a walker for the 2 to 3-mile event.
The Alzheimer's Association is the leading voluntary health organization in Alzheimer's care, support and research. The Walk to End Alzheimer’s is the world’s largest event to raise awareness and much-needed funds. The Walk to End Alzheimer’s is held annually in more than 600 communities nationwide. The Atlanta Walk to End Alzheimers takes place on Saturday, September 28, 2019.
