New Year's resolution: Help more people living with Alzheimer's disease.

Dear John, During the last year, an unprecedented time in our history, the support from friends like you in the fight against Alzheimer's disease has been invaluable. A new year offers a fresh start — and that's exactly why we're asking you to make your first gift today to our 2021 Annual Fund Drive. Only with your help can we 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. Without question, we have serious challenges ahead. The United States is anticipating an increase in the disease's prevalence. Currently 16 million Alzheimer's caregivers face the challenge of providing an estimated 18.6 billion hours of unpaid care and support in the United States. And the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic continues to impose additional challenges on those impacted by Alzheimer's. Still, I know that our community will come together to help us work toward our vision of a world without Alzheimer's and all other dementia. Please join us in support of this movement and help us provide care and support and accelerate research throughout this new year with your first gift to our 2021 Annual Fund Drive now. Consider making your gift today in honor of a friend, family member or coworker impacted by Alzheimer's. Our 2021 Annual Fund Drive is one of our most important efforts because it helps us prepare for top priorities in the year ahead, such as: Supporting caregivers through virtual support groups and education programs. Researching and promoting the adoption of evidence-based best practices for dementia care in long-term care communities. Continuing to help accelerate the world's most promising dementia research. Only with the support of people like you can we continue our fight against this devastating disease. Sincerely, Donna McCullough Chief Field and Development Officer P.S. By giving today, you'll help us advance research and provide the care and support so desperately needed for all those facing Alzheimer's. Thank you.

Your donation will strengthen our efforts to advance Alzheimer's care, support and research. From face-to-face support to online education programs and promising global research initiatives, your gift makes a difference in the lives of all those affected by Alzheimer's and other dementias in your community and across the world.
