Dear Friend,

Our $160,000 2X Matching Gift Challenge is underway, and we're
overwhelmed with gratitude to those who helped us kick off the
challenge yesterday. We're so excited for what the next two weeks will
bring, but we need as many people as possible to help us meet our
goals to fund our vital priorities.

Generous supporters at The Kahlert
Foundation, a Maryland based family foundation, have pledged $160,000
to the Alzheimer's Association to support Alzheimer's disease research
and programs and outreach initiatives at their local chapter -
but only if we can raise that same amount by August 16. Any gift you
make, up to $160,000, can be matched to advance critical research
efforts and help provide care and support.

Nearly 7 million people in the United States are living with
Alzheimer's. If we unlock this match, it will provide urgently needed
funding for our priorities in research, care and support, and
advocacy. Will you take a moment today to join the fight with a gift
while it can go 2X as far?

Living Well with Dementia: Music

Music can be powerful. Studies have shown music may reduce
agitation and improve behavioral issues that are common in the middle
stages of the disease. Even in the late stages of Alzheimer's, a
person may be able to tap a beat or sing lyrics to a song from
childhood. Music provides a way to connect, even after verbal
communication has become difficult.

Use these tips when selecting music for a person living with
dementia:

* Identify music that's familiar and enjoyable to the person.
* Choose a source of music that isn't interrupted by commercials.
* Use music to create the mood you want.
* Encourage movement (clapping, dancing).
* Avoid sensory overload; eliminate competing noises and make sure
the music isn't too loud.

Helping members of our community enhance daily life with
Alzheimer's is just one part of 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.

With our $160,000 2X Matching Gift Challenge, your gift can go
twice as far to advance vital research and provide care and support.
