We need you now. DONATE NOW to double your impact and accelerate critical research.

Dear Friend,

Our March 2X Match Challenge ends tomorrow at midnight, and our records indicate you haven't taken advantage of this amazing opportunity. Please don't miss this chance to double your impact on 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.

Yesterday was International Women's Day, and it was a moment for us to reflect on how women are disproportionately impacted by Alzheimer's disease and other dementia.

With almost two-thirds of Americans living with Alzheimer's being women, they have long been at the center of the Alzheimer's crisis. Research also shows that women take on more Alzheimer's caregiving tasks than their male counterparts. It takes patience, courage and love to care for a friend or family member living with Alzheimer's or another dementia. However, we can't ignore the substantial toll it takes on caregivers.

Over 11 million Americans provided unpaid care, dedicating more than 18.4 billion hours, valued at nearly $350 billion, in 2023. On top of the staggering financial costs, caregivers also pay an emotional toll, as many experience depression and impaired health as a result of the heavy burden they carry.

There is an urgent need for care and support services and continued research necessary to lighten the load caregivers carry. We're doing everything we can to support them and all those impacted by this disease, but we need your help today. Our March 2X Match Challenge is only around for a limited time, and you can make 2X the impact with your very first gift to help provide quality care and support while advancing critical research.

The Zent Family Foundation has stepped up in the face of this crisis and has pledged $120,000 in support of Alzheimer's disease research. Any gift you give before midnight on March 10 — up to $120,000 — can be matched 2X. Your first gift to this matching gift challenge will support critical research efforts and help provide care and support. Please help us unlock this match while your gift can double in impact.

By taking advantage of our March 2X Match Challenge, you'll make a real difference in the lives of nearly 7 million Americans living with Alzheimer's and the over 11 million family members and friends who provide their unpaid care. Every contribution, whether big or small, can make a meaningful impact.

MATCH MY GIFT 2X

Before you make a gift, consider the people you love most. Consider how their lives, and yours, would change with an Alzheimer's diagnosis. Because the Alzheimer's crisis continues to escalate, it's more critical than ever that we take action to support everyone affected by this cruel disease. Now, consider the difference you can make today when you take action with your first gift while it can be matched up to $120,000.

Sincerely,

Donna McCullough
Chief Operating Officer

P.S. Our March 2X Match Challenge ends at midnight tomorrow — and so does your opportunity to have 2X the impact in the fight to end Alzheimer's. Please hurry to make your gift before the deadline.

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.
