The Alzheimer’s Association’s Walk to End Alzheimer’s is a united movement to reclaim the future for millions. Walk to End Alzheimer’s will take place on September 10 at 8:30 a.m. at Waterfront Park’s Great Lawn in Louisville. Nearly 4,000 people from the Louisville area are expected at this year’s event to raise awareness and funds to fight Alzheimer’s disease.
Alzheimer's Association Walk to End Alzheimer's participants will participate in a .5 or 1.5 mile walk and will learn more about Alzheimer's disease, advocacy opportunities, clinical trial enrollment, and support programs and services of the Alzheimer’s Association. Each walker will also join in a meaningful tribute ceremony to honor those affected by Alzheimer's disease.
The end of Alzheimer’s disease starts here. Start or join a team today at alz.org/walk or 502-541-5266.
