Your gift can go twice as far to help end Alzheimer's.

Dear John, Cheryl lost her mother, Nadine, to Alzheimer's in 2011 after caring for her for a decade. Along her journey dealing with this disease, Cheryl became a dedicated supporter of the Alzheimer's Association by volunteering with the Walk to End Alzheimer's®, becoming a member of our Zenith Society and more. “It makes me happy to know I can have an impact.” — Cheryl Gross Cheryl is a fierce believer in the difference the Alzheimer's Association can make in the lives of caregivers. She has pledged to match every donation made to our $100,000 October Matching Gift Challenge before October 31, up to a total of $100,000 — but only if we can raise the same amount. Today, I'm asking you to make a gift to provide the care and support resources and advance research desperately needed to serve people in your community and across the nation. $100,000 October Matching Gift Challenge Name: John xxxxxx Member ID: 16320960 Pending Gift: $16 Can be matched 2X to: $32 Cheryl's gift will support the Association's efforts to advance the technology that powers our global research efforts and support programs.
