Now is the perfect time to demonstrate your commitment to helping to provide care and support to those impacted by Alzheimer's disease and accelerate research for new methods of treatment, prevention and ultimately, a cure. Your first gift can double in impact and will go directly to helping the nearly 7 million Americans living with this devastating disease, while advancing critical research.Can we count on you?
Thanks to the support of our donors, we are in a historic time in our fight. There are now U.S. Food and Drug Administration-approved treatments that could meaningfully change the course of the disease for people living with early Alzheimer's. While these treatments offer hope to some, they are not the answer for everyone. Our work is far from done. We won't rest until everyone living with dementia of any kind — at any stage — can get the treatment, care and support they need and deserve. Will you join us in the fight?
Living Well with Dementia: The Benefits of Exercise
Physical activity is associated with a lower risk of cognitive decline, as cardiovascular exercise will increase blood flow to your brain and body, providing additional nourishment while reducing potential dementia risk factors such as high blood pressure, diabetes and high cholesterol.
Group exercise, where you can connect with others who enjoy similar activities, can improve both your physical and social health. Aerobic exercise that increases your heart rate for 20 to 30 minutes, provides the most benefit for physical and cognitive health. Try vigorous walking, a fun dance class or tennis.
Providing resources and tips for our community is just one of the ways your support helps 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. And right now your support can go twice as far during our $160,000 Match Challenge, but please hurry — this match ends tomorrow. Please don't miss out on this amazing opportunity to show your support while your first gift can go twice as far today.
Generous supporters at The Kahlert Foundation, a Maryland based family foundation, have pledged $160,000 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 midnight tomorrow. Your first gift can have 2X the impact to advance research and help provide care and support.But this opportunity ends TOMORROW.
For one more day, you can join The Kahlert Foundation to become a key part of the movement to rid the world of this cruel disease. I would be so grateful if you took the time today to make a gift that can make twice the difference for those impacted by Alzheimer's. Thank you in advance.
With gratitude,
Michael Reich
