Share a photo using #TheLongestDay and #ENDALZ to be featured in the Shine a Light Gallery. You can also email your photo and story to [email protected] and we will share it for you.

 

"I shine my light on the winter solstice to honor my husband, James. By participating in The Longest Day, I’m helping to fund Association research and resources — like the ones that guided us on our journey. Using the mobile app and the prewritten messages from my Participant Center made it easy to text my contacts for support.

My tip: Don't be shy — ask everyone you know for a donation!"

- Wanda H., Solstice Champion

 

What are your plans for the holidays? It's easy to add fundraising to any activity during this festive time. You could invite your neighbors to a holiday movie watch party and cookie exchange for a donation to attend. Or ask family members to make a donation to your fundraising webpage in lieu of a holiday gift. You could even host an eggnog happy hour/ugly sweater contest and charge a donation to participate. Celebrate the season while raising funds and awareness for Alzheimer's care, support and research*. Register now to get started and receive a free insulated mug!
