$600,000 Matching Gift Challenge: We urgently need your support to reach our goal.

Dear Friend, We are entering an exciting new era in the fight to end Alzheimer's disease. That's why I'm reaching out once again today to invite you, a valued member of our Alzheimer's Association community, to join our $600,000 Matching Gift Challenge while there is still time for you to double your impact. The Food and Drug Administration has approved two treatments that slow the progression of disease for people living with early Alzheimer's. But early detection is critical to ensure individuals receive the most benefit at the earliest point possible, and every day more people transition to later stages of the disease and miss their window of opportunity. We won't rest until everyone living with Alzheimer's — at any stage — can get the treatment, care and support they need and deserve. This match offers our best opportunity to expand access to these breakthrough treatments to those who could benefit, provide care and support and drive new research — giving hope to more Americans living with Alzheimer's. Why? Because right now, during this special match challenge — you have the chance to make one gift go the distance of two. The strong interest you've taken in this fight tells me you want to make a difference, and what better time to join our community of supporters than when you can DOUBLE your impact. Don't miss your opportunity to achieve 2X the impact with one gift. Longtime supporters and Zenith Society members, Dick and Marianne Kipper have agreed to match every dollar we raise, up to $600,000, by September 30. That means your best gift today, can make 2X the impact. Here's the challenge: To unlock these matching funds, we must raise the same amount — $600,000 — by the deadline. The Kippers' gift will advance vital Alzheimer's research. Your donation of any amount, up to $600,000, can be matched to help provide care and support and accelerate research — the kind that leads to breakthrough treatments. Imagine everything $600,000 could help accomplish. We need to do all we can for the millions of individuals, families and caregivers affected by this cruel disease. We can't let this opportunity pass us by. Friend, your interest and involvement show how much you care about this fight. Your compassion fuels our mission to lead the way to end Alzheimer's and all other dementia — by accelerating global research, driving risk reduction and early detection, and maximizing quality care and support. With your help, I know we can reach our goal. That's why I'm asking once more if you will make your first gift today, while your donation can still make 2X the impact. Your first gift will ensure families facing Alzheimer's get the care and support they need and could be the one that helps us unlock this $600,000 match offer — and unlock new discoveries in the search for a cure. Today is the last day I will be emailing you about this special opportunity. I'm really hoping to hear from you before the day is over. Once this challenge ends, your chance to DOUBLE your impact will be gone. Sincerely, Donna McCullough Chief Mission and Field Operations Officer P.S. Time is running out. Don't let $600,000 in matching funds disappear when they can do so much good. Please make your first gift now to help unlock this match and make 2X the impact.

Your donation will strengthen our efforts to advance Alzheimer's care, support and research. From face-to-face support to online education programs and promising global research initiatives, your gift makes a difference in the lives of all those affected by Alzheimer's and other dementias in your community and across the world.
