You have a unique opportunity to be part of something bigger before the end of the summer. We're running out of time in our $160,000 2X Matching Gift Challenge.
You are a loyal participant in our community, and we know that you're committed to the cause. Will you make a gift today while your impact can go even further? Your support during this 2X match will 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.
Living Well with Dementia: Physical Health
A dementia diagnosis can be extremely upsetting. But caring for your physical health can help people live well with their diagnosis as long as possible. There are several ways to maximize physical health after a diagnosis:
Get regular checkups.
Establish a routine for diet and exercise.
Create a care team that understands your physical health needs and can help you monitor or respond to any changes that occur.
Listen to your body. Rest when you are tired and be mindful of overextending yourself.
Drink only minimal amounts of alcohol.
Do not change medications and/or dosages without first checking with your doctor.
Offering resources to help improve care and support for people living with Alzheimer's or other dementia is a critical part of our work. Can I count on your support during our $160,000 2X Matching Gift Challenge when your first gift can go TWICE as far to fuel our priorities?
The Kahlert Foundation, a Maryland based family foundation, has pledged a $160,000 gift to the Alzheimer's Association to support Alzheimer's research and programs and outreach initiatives at their local chapter — but only if we can raise that same amount by August 16. Thanks to their generosity, any gift you make, up to a total of $160,000, can be matched to advance critical research efforts and help provide care and support.
We're getting close to the end of this match challenge, and we need you with us. This funding will be vital to providing care and support resources and for advancing cutting-edge research for more treatments and, eventually, a cure. It is only with your help that we can continue this march forward. I would be so grateful if you took the time today to make your first gift that can be matched and have TWICE the impact.
When you give during our $160,000 2X Matching Gift Challenge, just look how far your support can go:
Your donation will strengthen our efforts to advance Alzheimer's care, support and research. From face-to-face support to online education programs and promising global research initiatives, your gift makes a difference in the lives of all those affected by Alzheimer's and other dementias in your community and across the world. Thank you for your continued support.
