One person…every minute…1,440 people. This is the number of people that will develop Alzheimer’s disease today. This doesn’t take into consideration the numbers of people that will develop other types of dementia today (i.e. Lewy Body, frontotemporal dementia, vascular dementia, and others).
This disease is personal to me as I know it is to many of you reading this post. On this #GivingTuesday, the Gayle Wells Foundation for Early Onset Alzheimer’s & Care would like to raise $1,440 to honor those whose lives will be forever changed on this day. Due to the generosity of an anonymous donor, gifts will be matched $1 for $1 up to $1,440. A gift of $5 doubles to $10!
Please consider supporting our efforts as we provide one-on-one support, care, and education to individuals, their families, and their communities at no cost. Click here to access our #GivingTuesday fundraising page. #forgetmenotgwf #earlyonsetAlz
