We're fundraising for...

Two members of the Channel 7 team are running the TCS New York City Marathon this year, to raise funds for the Alzheimer's Association. This is part of the station's commitment to the cause and to covering "the rising tide of Alzheimer's, and other similar diseases, including how it's affecting patients and their families, how the price of treatment and the price of caring for patients is simply unaffordable and how this country might begin to change that. 

Thank you to our Donors
