Help me reach my goal for 48 Peaks!

This summer, I'm honoring my grandmother, Gertrude, and all those affected by Alzheimer’s and other dementias by participating in 48 Peaks, a fundraising event to advance the care, support and research efforts of the Alzheimer's Association. Alzheimer’s is near and dear to my heart, and I appreciate you taking the time to donate.

I will be hiking to the summit of Wildcat A, one of New Hampshire’s 4,000ft. peaks in the White Mountains. Those who would like to join my team, but are not ready to tackle a full 4K, can join our second hike, Mt. Piper, in the Lakes Region of NH. 

Please consider making a donation and help me  reach my goal!   

During the last three years I have been participating in this amazing event, monumental progress has been made in the world of treatment against Alzheimer’s, including the first disease-modifying treatments. But, the fight is far from over. Today, over 50 million people across the world are living with Alzheimer's, including over 7 million Americans. In the U.S. alone, more than 11 million caregivers generously dedicate themselves to those with Alzheimer's and dementia, providing over $350 billion worth of unpaid care.  We must take action now, as these numbers continue to rise.

Together, we can show those facing Alzheimer's disease that they are not alone. Please make a donation today to help the Alzheimer's Association support all those facing the disease. Thank you!
