Dear John,
While communities nationwide have felt
the pain of COVID-19, long-term care settings - home to many
people living with Alzheimer's and other dementia - have been
impacted significantly.
According to some estimates, more than
54,000 residents and workers have died from the coronavirus at nursing
homes and other long-term care communities. We know that 48% of
nursing home residents are living with dementia, and 42% of residents
in residential care settings, including assisted living communities,
are living with Alzheimer's or another dementia.
John, will you
help us fight for all facing Alzheimer's by becoming a monthly donor
today? When you provide monthly support, you'll help to further our
mission to lead the way to end Alzheimer's - by accelerating
research, driving risk reduction and early detection, and maximizing
quality care and support.

John, I'm so grateful
for the people who have become monthly donors to support our cause.
These generous and committed supporters now enjoy the efficiency of
having their donations processed automatically, the flexibility of
changing the amount at any time, and the power of knowing their
monthly gift helps bring us closer to our vision of a world without
Alzheimer's and all other dementia.
The Alzheimer's Association is urging
state and federal lawmakers to implement new policy solutions which
will address the immediate and long-term issues impacting care
facilities during the COVID-19 pandemic.
In addition to driving advocacy, we
continue to lead the effort to provide care and support and advance
research by:
* Moving the entire staff at our free 24/7 Helpline (800.272.3900)
to their homes, continuing to provide constant support from a
dementia care expert, any hour of the day or night.
* Shifting support groups to video and phone calls to ensure that
people living with Alzheimer's and their caregivers can continue
to connect with and support one another while many remain in
isolation.
* Converting the Alzheimer's Association International
Conference® 2020 to a virtual event with free access
anywhere in the world, so we can keep research moving forward.
No one knows what new challenges the
months ahead will bring. But one thing is certain: Now more than ever,
the dependable support of friends like you who are dedicated to our
care, support, research and advocacy efforts is a lifeline for
everyone facing this disease.
I'm counting on you to help us reach
our goal.
