Happy New Year from the Alzheimer's Association.

Dear Friend,

As we enter the first days of the new
year, I want to extend my sincere wishes for a happy and prosperous
2024. Thanks to our generous supporters, we're off to a great start in
the new year, and I hope for 2024 to be a year of even greater
achievements and change. Together, we'll continue our work to provide
care and support and advance critical Alzheimer's disease research,
along with advocating for policies that will increase federal research
funding and help support those impacted by the disease.

In 2023 we achieved remarkable
milestones that have set the stage for 2024. As we continue to make
great strides toward supporting and empowering the more than 6 million
Americans living with Alzheimer's and the over 11 million family
members and friends who are providing their unpaid care, I want to
share some of the highlights from last year that our amazing and
committed community of supporters has made possible:

We provided care and support
more than 6.5 million times through channels including alz.org, care
consultations, support groups and education programs.

The Association once again made
its largest-ever total annual research commitment: $100 million,
including more than $74 million in grants for new scientific
investigations. As the world's largest leading nonprofit funder of
Alzheimer's and dementia research, the Association is currently
investing more than $360 million in over 1,000 active best-of-field
projects in 53 countries, spanning 6 continents.

Working with bipartisan
congressional champions, tireless advocates drove an increase of $226
million in Alzheimer's and dementia research funding at the National
Institutes of Health (NIH), bringing federal funding to more than $3.7
billion annually.

The ongoing efforts of the
Association and the Alzheimer's Impact Movement (AIM), our separately
incorporated advocacy affiliate, successfully fought for critical
research and care and support initiatives at the state and federal
levels. Together with our hundreds of thousands of advocates, we are
relentless in our efforts to make Alzheimer's a national priority
while speaking up for the needs and rights of people living with the
disease.

We're grateful to have you as part of
our Alzheimer's Association community. We couldn't do what we do
without you.

I'm confident that with your continued
support this year, we can make extraordinary progress in the fight
against Alzheimer's and continue to accelerate research toward methods
of treatment, prevention and, ultimately, a cure.

Alzheimer's is a rapidly escalating
global public health crisis. The number of people living with
Alzheimer's - an estimated more than 55 million worldwide
- is expected to nearly triple, reaching 152 million by 2050.
Without effective treatments and ample support, this looming increase
will create an overwhelming strain for health care systems and on
families.

Our work is far from done, but
together, we can continue to change the trajectory of this devastating
disease. Until there's a cure, we'll continue pursuing 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.

As long as I can continue to count on
you for support, I believe there's nothing we can't achieve. Together,
we'll make 2024 an amazing year. On behalf of the Alzheimer's
Association, thank you so much for your dedication to our vision of a
world without Alzheimer's and all other dementia.

With gratitude,

Donna McCullough

Chief Mission and Field Operations
Officer
