Dear Friend,
Thank you for being a member of the Alzheimer's Association community. You not only recognize the threat that Alzheimer's disease poses to ourselves and our loved ones — you also understand the need for care and support and advancements in research that can lead to more breakthroughs.
As I write to you today, World Alzheimer's Day is two days away and so is our deadline to unlock this powerful $175,000 World Alzheimer's Day Match Challenge. Please take this opportunity to advance the fight against Alzheimer's disease and make twice the impact.
For more than a decade, people around the world have come together on World Alzheimer's Day, helping raise awareness and to show their commitment in this fight against this devastating disease.
There has never been a World Alzheimer's Day like this one. Food and Drug Administration-approved treatments offer new hope for those in the early stages of Alzheimer's. But these promising breakthrough drugs are still out of reach for many who need them. And more people are transitioning to later stages of the disease every day, making them no longer eligible for these treatments. So our work is far from done.
We won't rest until everyone with Alzheimer's — at any stage — can get the treatment, care and support they need and deserve. And we're counting on your commitment today to help us get there.
Now, we must continue to invest in research, as well as advocacy and outreach, so more people have access to effective therapies and much-needed care and support resources. When you make your first gift today, you have the opportunity to have your gift matched and to shine a spotlight on Alzheimer's and all other dementia.
And to help make this World Alzheimer's Day even more impactful, Alzheimer's Association Zenith Society members Dick and Marianne Kipper have pledged to match every donation we receive until World Alzheimer's Day, September 21— up to a total of $175,000. But in order to achieve this challenge, we need to raise the same amount by the deadline. The Kippers' gift will help fund Alzheimer's disease research, while your donation can be matched to provide care and support and accelerate research that can make more life-changing breakthroughs possible to help the millions of Americans living with this terrible disease.
We need your help today to meet this match, but there is limited time left. Can we count on you to lead the way and unlock this crucial $175,000 World Alzheimer's Day Match Challenge?
I know we can achieve this match challenge goal by working together, but there isn't much time left. Right now, every day counts and so does every dollar you can give because your gift, up to $175,000, can make 2X the impact when you give before Thursday at midnight.
URGENT: Only 2 days left for your gift to have twice the impact. |

Your generosity during our $175,000 World Alzheimer's Day Match Challenge can go 2X as far to advance 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.
Your gift will help to:
- Support the more than 11 million Alzheimer's and dementia caregivers in America, many of whom are family members.
- Provide support for people living with Alzheimer's or another dementia through our free 24/7 Helpline (800.272.3900), and through online webinars and support groups, our Community Resource Finder and more, at alz.org.
- Advocate for policies that will increase federal research funding and support those impacted by Alzheimer's.
Friend, this is a fight for our health, our lives, our future and the people we love. We need your help to meet the match goal, and to provide care and support while funding research that can lead to the next breakthrough. Please share your generosity today with your first gift that can go 2X as far and help create a healthier and more hopeful future.
Gratefully,
Donna McCullough
Chief Mission and Field Operations Officer
