Dear Friend,
As the holidays approach, I know you probably have a lot on your plate. That's why I'll get straight to the point: this time of year can be especially difficult for people providing care for loved ones living with Alzheimer's disease or another dementia.
I'm reaching out again because we have an especially wonderful opportunity to help. The Konar Family has generously pledged a $300,000 gift in memory of William and Sheila Konar to advance Alzheimer's research. They've offered to triple-match any donation you give to this matching gift challenge — up to a total of $300,000 — before December 31.
We're so grateful to have you as a committed member of this community. Will you join the fight today and help us continue to be a reliable resource for caregivers and everyone living with Alzheimer's in the holiday season ahead? Will you help us continue to provide care and support and advance promising research during our 3X Matching Gift Challenge, while your holiday gift can have triple the impact?
Today, more than 11 million family members and friends are providing care to people living with Alzheimer's. As they meet the challenges of the holiday season, they need your support more than ever.
Thankfully, we have the rare chance to unlock $300,000 in matching funds for critical Alzheimer's disease research and much-needed care and support resources. We're hopeful that you'll help us take advantage of this incredible opportunity to make triple the impact for individuals and families facing Alzheimer's this holiday season.

The Alzheimer's Association provides free resources, such as our Holidays and Alzheimer's Guide, that can help prepare loved ones caring for someone living with Alzheimer's during the holiday season. On behalf of the caregivers who count on us, please say you'll send the most generous gift you can during our 3X Matching Gift Challenge.
Your first gift in this critical fight can help us continue to provide reliable caregiver guidance, as well as care and support to those affected by Alzheimer's while we advance critical research.
This critical research has allowed us to make tremendous progress in our efforts to end Alzheimer's. Food and Drug Administration-approved treatments that could meaningfully change the course of the disease for people living with early Alzheimer's are now available.
We celebrate this progress. However, it's important to note that while these treatments offer great hope for some, they are not the answer for everyone. Every day without access, an additional 2,000 people progress past the point of eligibility for treatment. So, our work is far from done.
We need your help to keep our momentum going, and to ensure that one day, anyone with dementia of any kind — at any stage — can get the treatment, care and support they need and deserve. By making a contribution now, your support can go 3X as far to help further 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.
Please don't wait another day to help us unlock $300,000 in matching funds to keep critical research going and to provide help and hope to everyone affected by Alzheimer's. Thank you in advance for your generosity.
In the spirit of giving,
Donna McCullough
Chief Mission and Field Operations Officer
P.S. We're fortunate to have this rare opportunity for your gift to make 3X the impact right before the holidays. Thank you for joining the fight and for helping unlock $300,000 during our 3X Matching Gift Challenge with your first gift that will help push our mission forward. While we hope that every caregiver and their family have a happy holiday, we know the season can be difficult — and we know that they rely on us for support. Thank you for your generosity.
