This match is made possible thanks to a generous donor who wishes to remain anonymous, and who has pledged to match all gifts — up to $175,000 — until midnight tonight, but only if we can raise the same amount. Their gift will support Alzheimer's research and local chapter events, while your gift can make 2X the difference on accelerating research and providing much-needed care and support.
With our World Alzheimer's Day 2X Match Challenge ending at midnight tonight, I wanted to share one last reason to give — the future. Our vision is a world without Alzheimer's and all other dementia. But if we are to reach a tomorrow in which no one will suffer from this devastating disease, we need your help right now.
While we continue to make tremendous progress in the fight against Alzheimer's, this disease remains an escalating public global health crisis that threatens our future:
Alzheimer's will cost our nation $360 billion in 2024. By 2050, that number could reach nearly $1 trillion.
Nearly 7 million Americans are living with Alzheimer's today. By 2060, that number is projected to grow to 13.8 million.
To slow and even reverse the course of this crisis and bring more hope for the future, we must make the most of every chance we have to make an impact. That's why it is imperative that we seize this matching gift opportunity — this opportunity to fight twice as hard for those living with Alzheimer's today and for the generations that follow.
Advocating in all 50 states to secure access to all U.S. Food and Drug Administration-approved Alzheimer's treatments for those who would benefit.
We're currently investing in over 1,100 active projects in 56 countries across six continents.
Our 24/7 Helpline answered more than 200,000 calls and online chats, offering support and information to those in need last year.
Provided 6.5 million touches of care and support last year.
As you can see, you are making a real difference, but if we are to achieve a tomorrow free of this dreaded disease, we need you to join the fight. Your first gift today — World Alzheimer's Day — can go twice as far to push that work forward. Twice as far to provide essential care and support programs. Twice as far to protect our future through groundbreaking research that can unlock new ways to prevent, treat and, one day, cure this disease.
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.
