Women in their sixties are more than twice as likely to develop Alzheimer's disease in their lifetime as they are to develop breast cancer. And while almost two-thirds of Americans living with Alzheimer's are women, the scary truth is: We're all at risk for Alzheimer's. Chances are you or someone you know has been impacted by this deadly disease.
As someone who cares about ending Alzheimer's, you understand that every moment is precious when you're fighting this disease, because each moment it steals more of your independence and time with family and friends. There is no time to waste. When this incredible match opportunity ends, so will your chance to have 2X the impact for the millions affected by Alzheimer's or another dementia.
Generous supporter Leone McKay has pledged to match all gifts, up to $150,000 — but only if we can raise the same amount by midnight tomorrow. While our donor's pledge, made in honor of her late husband, Col. William P. McKay, whom she lost to Alzheimer's disease, will support promising research, your donation can go 2X as far to 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.
Please don't wait, Friend. When you give this World Alzheimer's Day, you're making a critical and life-changing impact. With the help of our supporters, we have:
