How do you raise Alzheimer’s awareness?
June 21st, is the longest day of the year. It is also the day that the Alzheimer’s association brings light to this devastating disease.
Their slogan is “Grab your friends. Do what you love. Honor those facing Alzheimer’s.”
In essence, they ask that you take this one day, form a team, do something that you love and raise money for Alzheimer’s from sunrise to sunset.
The longest day is this coming Saturday. One of GG doctors brought this to my attention. He will be participating in a sport’s camp that day.
Other suggestions are dance, rock climb, hike, cook, swim, craft, music, walk, paint, cycle, garden, card games, theatre, rollerblade, golf, or combine multiple activities together. This is an opportunity to put on your creative thinking cap and come up with something you love to do to support this cause.
