Join thousands of Canadians who want to see a world without Alzheimer’s disease. Walk for Alzheimer’s is Canada’s biggest fundraiser for Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. Monies raised support programs and services in your community that improve the quality of life for people living with dementia and their families, and support other activities like education and public awareness.
If you raise $250 you get to put your name in a draw for a $1000 Via Rail voucher, each additional $100 gets your name in the draw again!
There will also be a "Night of Acoustics" on May 17th at the Five and Dime in support of the Walk for Alzheimer’s from 6:30 to close featuring Local Men, Mike Biggar, Jess Darrah, and more. It's a $10 donation at the door and there's tons of door prizes to be won. For more info on the Night of Acoustics, contact Jerry at 647-5837.
Walks take place in over 150 communities across Canada. In 2015, more than 25,000 walkers participated, raising over $4.8 million.
When you walk, you make memories matter. You send a message of hope to Canadians currently living with dementia, and thousands more who care for them. When you fundraise, you promise them that help will always be available.
Join the Saint John Walk today for fun, fitness and raising much-needed funds and awareness.
There's also walks all over NB including St. George, St. Andrews, Grand Manan, and Fredericton.
