Dear John,
#GivingTuesday, the biggest day of global giving of the year, is halfway over. If you've already made your #GivingTuesday gift, thank you. People from around the world are joining to support our efforts to end Alzheimer's disease. Are you in?
#GivingTuesday $650,000 Matching Gift Challenge Status: |
Name: John xxxxxx |
2X $650,000 Match Challenge: Available |
#GivingTuesday Status: Pending (Donate now.) |
Thank you for joining our community. You are now part of the Alzheimer's Association family, and I hope you'll take the opportunity today to make your first gift when it can have twice the impact in the fight to end Alzheimer's.
#GivingTuesday may only last a day, but your impact will be felt all year long. Your gift will make 2X the IMPACT 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.
Help bring hope, resources and year-round support to the millions of individuals facing Alzheimer's. Please take advantage of this opportunity to double your impact and make your #GivingTuesday gift now.
Your gift today:
- Makes you a part of the #GivingTuesday movement.
- Can be MATCHED during our $650,000 Matching Gift Challenge.
- Helps us work toward our vision of a world without Alzheimer's and all other dementia.
Our $650,000 Matching Gift Challenge is still going on this #GivingTuesday. Longtime friend and Zenith Society member Cheryl Gross has pledged to match every gift made up to a total of $650,000 — if we can raise the same amount before December 31. Her matching gift will advance the technology that powers our global research efforts and our care and support programs. Cheryl's pledge honors her mother, who battled with Alzheimer's for the last 10 years of her life before she passed away in 2011.
And Cheryl is eager to match YOUR #GivingTuesday gift, which will help bring us closer to our vision of a world without Alzheimer's and all other dementia.
In honor of #GivingTuesday, I'd like to take a moment to share some numbers with you: 1 in 3 seniors dies from Alzheimer's or another dementia. This disease kills more than breast cancer and prostate cancer combined. And it will cost the nation $1.1 trillion by 2050.
But we are fighting back. Annually, the support of friends like you enables us to field nearly 250,000 calls to our 24/7 Helpline (800.272.3900) and to deliver care and support 9.1 million times. With your help, we can advocate for the needs and rights of those facing this disease in all 50 states and support 590 active research projects in 31 countries across six continents.
Please respond today. #GivingTuesday is just one day, but for people living with Alzheimer's, their families, friends and caregivers, your gift could make a lifetime of difference.
Sincerely,
Donna McCullough
Chief Field and Development Officer
P.S. So many people are counting on us all to meet this goal to deliver care and support and advance research. Honestly, without you, we may not make it. Please consider making a generous gift today.
