The Alzheimer’s Association has a goal of wiping out Alzheimer’s Disease by 2025 and we want to help! None of us wants to see our children or grandchildren – or anyone else’s – deal with the awful disease that we faced with our mother/grandmother/sister/friend, Lucy who lost her battle in 2015 at the age of 65. And of course, we don’t want to get this disease ourselves! It is the 6th leading cause of death in the United Sates and the only leading cause of death with no known treatment, prevention or cure. Our hope and dream is to change that!
Each year, we host the “Bash for Brains” to bring our community together to raise awareness and funds for research and caregiver support for the Alzheimer’s Association and the Walk to End Alzheimer’s. Our backyard bash, complete with live music, silent auction, raffles, wine pull and more has become a huge success. In the past five years, we have raised well over $100,000!
This year, we invite you to support our fight against Alzheimer’s with a donation of services, gift cards, or baskets. Your donation will leverage donations from our attendees in either the silent auction or the raffle portion of our event. This year’s goal is to raise a total of $40,000 at the event.
Thank you for considering donating to the 6th Annual Bash for Brains. If you have any questions or would like to learn more, please reach out (contact information below).
