If you're the kind of person who's not going to sit on the sidelines when there's a chance to change the future, then you're the person we need.
When you register for the Alzheimer's Association Memory Walk®, you're joining a nationwide community of thousands of people who are standing up and participating in the fight against this devastating disease.
Your journey to end Alzheimer's starts here – and it's so easy.
Register. We'll send you more information about how you can get involved with Memory Walk 2009.
Form a team. Participating in Memory Walk is even more fun with a group. Ask your co-workers, family and friends to walk as a team. You'll be amazed at how many people you know whose lives have been changed by Alzheimer's.
Fundraise. Every Memory Walk participant is asked to raise money for the fight against Alzheimer's. Alzheimer's Association staff are ready to support you every step of the way with tips, tools and advice. Every registered walker that raises a $100 or more, receives a Memory Walk t-shirt!
Get Creative. Raise money with our online tools, hold a fundraising event or ask for a donation when you're face-to-face.
Walk! Memory Walk is a unique experience. See the difference you can make as we walk to change the course of Alzheimer’s together. The Lake County Memory Walk is a 5K (3.2 mile) Walk.
Memory Walk is the nation's largest event to raise awareness and funds for Alzheimer care, support and research. Since 1989, Memory Walk has raised more than $260 million for the cause.
All Memory Walk donations benefit the Alzheimer's Association, the leading voluntary health organization in Alzheimer care, support and research. The mission of the Alzheimer's Association is 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.
