Right now, over 7 million Americans are living with Alzheimer's disease — and nearly 12 million family members and friends are providing their unpaid care. For them, every day, every hour, every single second counts.
That's why our One-Week Match Challenge is so crucial. Dr. Peter B. Landecker has pledged to match every gift received — up to $100,000 — if we can raise the same amount by midnight on May 22. Made in memory of his mother, Mildred Landecker, a longtime friend and supporter of the Alzheimer's Association, his gift will support our International Research Grant Program, which funds investigations to advance our understanding of Alzheimer's, identify potential treatment strategies and improve care for people living with dementia.

This match could not have come at a better time. According to our most recent Facts and Figures Report, Alzheimer's disease continues to be an escalating global health crisis - and a deadly one.
No one should have to face the loss of a loved one from Alzheimer's or another dementia. That's why we're committed to fueling the crucial research leading to new early detection methods, prevention, treatments and, ultimately, a cure, as well as providing 24/7 care and support for people affected by this devastating disease now. But we need your help to ensure we can continue and enhance our work.
I'm so thankful that you're a part of the Alzheimer's Association community. Join the fight with a gift that can go 2X as far to 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.
Our One-Week Match Challenge ends in just a few days — and the families affected by Alzheimer's don't have a second to spare. They need you to join the fight. Please don't wait. Make your gift now.
Sincerely,
Katie Evans
Chief Programming and Mission Engagement Officer
