COLUMBUS, Ind. – The local 2023 Walk to End Alzheimer’s raised $43,279 this past weekend at Mill Race Park Amphitheater. The funds go towards the care, support, and research programs of the Alzheimer’s Association.
“We have made incredible strides in the fight to end this disease, and we won’t stop until there is a cure,” said Xandra Dungan, the manager of Columbus Walk to End Alzheimer’s. “We want to thank each sponsor, team captain, participant, and supporter for helping us raise funds to continue advancing research and supporting those affected by this disease through free education programs, support groups, and our 24/7 Helpline.”
More than six million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s disease, a leading cause of death in the United States. Additionally, more than 11 million family members and friends provide care to people living with Alzheimer’s and other dementias. In Indiana alone, there are more than 110,000 people living with the disease and 216,000 caregivers.
