Tomorrow is #GivingTuesday, but you can triple your impact on the fight against Alzheimer's today.

Good morning, Friend, This year's #GivingTuesday is filled with a greater hope for the future, as we've taken significant strides in pursuit of our vision of a world without Alzheimer's disease and all other dementia. #GivingTuesday is tomorrow, but I urge you to get a head start by making your first gift in support of our $600,000 #GivingTuesday 3X Match today, so that we can keep working toward fulfilling the promise of the progress we've made together. Please make a gift that can achieve three times the impact during our $600,000 #GivingTuesday 3X Match. Thanks to caring friends like you, we reached a monumental achievement in 2023: an astounding $100 million investment in research initiatives. This unparalleled commitment — our largest single-year investment ever — is helping the world's leading dementia scientists bring us to a new era in the fight against Alzheimer's. Research breakthroughs over the past year alone are delivering real results and real hope: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved treatments that could meaningfully change the course of the disease for people living with early Alzheimer's. Exciting progress is being made toward the development of blood biomarkers — measurable biological changes that can help detect and accurately diagnose the disease, possibly years before symptoms appear. Promising clinical trial results showed that a potential new treatment significantly slowed cognitive functional decline in people with early-stage Alzheimer’s disease, with nearly half (47%) of study participants at the earliest stage of disease who received the treatment having no clinical progression at one year. These breakthroughs prove that, together, we are making progress. But our work is far from done. The FDA-approved treatments offer hope to some, but they're not the answer for everyone — and they're not equally accessible to all. Without access, an additional 2,000 people a day progress past eligibility for these treatments. We won't rest until everyone with dementia of any kind — at any stage — can get the treatment and care and support they need and deserve. That is why your generous support of our $600,000 #GivingTuesday 3X Match is so urgently needed. #GivingTuesday is just one day away, so please join the fight with a generous gift now, while it can still go 3X as far in our fight against Alzheimer's. This special $600,000 #GivingTuesday 3X Match is an extraordinary offer from the Konar Family. They've agreed to triple-match every gift we receive, up to $600,000, in memory of William and Sheila Konar to advance Alzheimer's research — but only until midnight tomorrow. With #GivingTuesday less than 24 hours away, we need your help now to make the most of this opportunity. Please don't wait to make a gift that can do 3X as much to 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. If we are to keep our momentum going strong, we need your help today. Please don't wait until tomorrow to make your #GivingTuesday gift. Give now so that — together — we can make 3X the impact in the fight against this disease. Thank you. With gratitude, Donna McCullough Chief Mission and Field Operations Officer P.S. Friend, #GivingTuesday is tomorrow, but I hope I can count on you today to help us unlock this rare 3X match with a generous gift before it expires at midnight tomorrow.
