Alzheimer Walk for Memories 2015Dear editor: My mum was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease five years ago. Since then, my family has benefitted from our association with Alzheimer Society Dufferin. Knowledgeable, dedicated, compassionate staff and volunteers offer education, connections to community programmes and social functions to residents of Dufferin County. All of this is provided on a very tight budget. On January 25, the 15th annual “Walk for Memories” will take place at the Orangeville Mall. The walk is the major fund raiser. We hope to raise $20,000. This upbeat, positive family morning also aims to raise awareness about Alzheimer's. Alzheimer's and other dementias impact more than the individual—about 9 000 people in Dufferin. As a member of the Board of Directors, I invite you and your family to join us at the mall on January 25 from 9:30-11:30 a.m. Find our walk at www.walkformemories.ca Jean Hayward Alzheimer Society Dufferin |
