Why should I participate?

You should participate because it is a great way to stand up for what you believe in and show that you care about Alzheimer’s Disease and related illnesses. The more people who participate, the louder our call to action will be.

Participation in this event is also a heartwarming way to honor someone you know with the disease or memorialize someone has passed as a result of the disease.

In addition, you can help raise funds to support families living with Alzheimer’s Disease — and earn great prizes in doing so; you will feel a part of your community; and you can invite your friends and family to join you.
