Join Us in the Memory Walk to End Alzheimer’s Disease
Filed Under Kansas and Missouri Alzheimer's Care
Every 70 seconds, someone is diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. Left unchecked, 16 million Americans will develop the disease, including 10 million baby boomers.
Join us and thousands of others on October 3 as we get “on the MOVE†to end Alzheimer’s.
The Memory Walk raises critical funds that support the research efforts of the Alzheimer’s Association. In addition, it raises awareness that encourages people to seek an accurate and early diagnosis, and support a better life for those living with the disease – and the millions more who must manage the financial and emotional burdens of life as a caregiver.
As elder law attorneys, we see the devastating consequences of those suffering with Alzheimer’s. Routine tasks such as bathing, dressing, eating and meal preparation become difficult or impossible. On a daily basis, we help people who are emotionally and physically exhausted get answers to the legal questions that require immediate planning.
The Elder and Disability Law Firm is a proud sponsor of the Alzheimer’s Association Memory Walk ‘09. We hope you’ll come out and support this signature fundraiser for the Heart of America Chapter and help end Alzheimer’s.
The Kansas City Memory Walk begins with registration at 9 a.m. in the parking lot of Building 40 in Corporate Woods. The one- and three-mile walks start at 10 a.m. Register online at www.kansascitymw.kintera.org or call 913.831.3888 to request a registration brochure.
