The Longest Day/The Shortest Day - Caregivers Dedicate Themselves to Loved Ones

By Gini Cunningham

Welcome to my virtual luminary page

I’m participating in The Longest Day to fundraise for the care, support and research efforts of the Alzheimer’s Association. In honor of the winter solstice on December 21, I am creating my own luminaries in Memory of Mama and Carole plus all those who have passed from Alzheimer's to shine a light on the darkness of this disease. I hope to have luminaries sparkling throughout our community to show how much we care about loved ones and about finding a treatment and a cure.

Today, an estimated 50 million people worldwide are living with Alzheimer’s or other dementias, including more than 6 million Americans. In the United States alone, more than 11 million friends and family members are providing their care. We must take action now, or these numbers will continue to rise. Please support me in the fight to end Alzheimer’s with a donation today. Thank you!
