Description

The Alzheimer’s Association MA/NH, like many, is facing an unprecedented challenge. While none of us know the duration of the current crisis, we do know that many people taking care of a loved one affected by dementia at home still need the services of the Alzheimer’s Association. The calls to our 24/7 helpline are still being answered, support groups and education programs are happening virtually, but funding is disappearing.

Several of our chapter’s spring events and fundraisers have been cancelled because of this pandemic. It will be a tough season but we are ready to work to reach our goal by the end of June so that we can continue the great work we do serving those with Alzheimer’s and other dementias.

We are taking our fundraising virtual and hosting an online auction. All donations are tax-deductible and donated items will be put to good use, supporting the Alzheimer's Association's mission to eliminate Alzheimer's disease through the advancement of research; to provide and enhance care and support for all affected; and to reduce the risk of dementia through the promotion of brain health.

The auction will run from June 7, 2020 to June 14, 2020 and we are hoping to secure all items by May 22, 2020.
