Help advance critical research and provide quality care and support

Dear Friend, The holidays should be a season to settle in and cherish every second of who and what matters most in life. As we gather with family and friends to share heartfelt laughter and celebrate cherished traditions, it often feels like time stands still. But for families facing the day-in, day-out battle against Alzheimer's disease, even the holidays can feel like a race against the clock. What if I told you that your gift to our Holiday 3X Match could promote early detection and diagnosis that could give more help and hope to those facing Alzheimer's, while also enhancing vital care and support programs and advancing promising research? Today, you have that chance. The JTMF Foundation has stepped forward and generously pledged to triple-match every dollar we receive — up to an extraordinary $250,000. The trustees of the foundation have made this incredible gift in honor of loved ones they've lost to Alzheimer's, and their gift will support local care and support programs and expand our reach to families in rural communities. Please help us make the most of this opportunity before the December 26 deadline, by making your first gift today to advance promising research and provide care and support programs across the nation. Your gift may even be tax-deductible. These sketches were drawn by individuals administered the Clock Drawing Test, a common cognitive screening test used to help aid in Alzheimer's diagnosis as well as determine how far the disease has progressed. As you can see, the disease affects the brain more severely over time. This is a historic time in our fight against this disease. With Food and Drug Administration approval of treatments that could meaningfully change the course of the disease for people living with early Alzheimer's, getting evaluated and diagnosed early has never been more important. These breakthrough treatments give many people hope for more time — time to plan for the future, review clinical trials, build treatment plans and simply enjoy the holidays. But they are not the answer for everyone. Without access, an additional 2,000 people a day progress past the point of eligibility for these treatments. This is a heartbreaking reality for so many families. But you can provide help and hope. Your first gift to our Holiday 3X Match today can make THREE TIMES the difference in our vital work to promote education about early detection, provide essential care and support, and champion research that can lead to new treatments and, ultimately, a cure. Our work is far from over. We won't rest until everyone living with Alzheimer's or dementia of any kind can get the treatment, care and support they need and deserve. To keep fighting, we need your help right now. Please make your first gift to our Holiday 3X Match before time runs out on this offer. Today, I invite you 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. Thank you for giving hope and help to families who need it most during these special times. Gratefully, Michael Reich Chief Marketing Officer P.S. Alzheimer's is all about time. There's never been a better time than now to help us fight this disease. Please make your first gift today, while it can still go 3X as far to help the millions of families affected by this disease.
