DURHAM: The IG Wealth Management Walk for Alzheimer’s is going online and nationwide! The Alzheimer Society of Durham Region cordially invites you to make your move with us on Sunday, May 31st, 2020, as we join Alzheimer Societies from across Canada in this landmark event. While we can’t physically walk together right now, we can still connect virtually and have fun as a group! That’s why we have decided to go VIRTUAL! Do a dance, climb the stairs, jump rope, walk around the house or around the block. Let’s show the world that our connections matter. These are unprecedented times. We all need to distance physically and are experiencing the difficulty and isolation it brings. But for our clients, caregivers and the families of over 10,000 Durham Region residents who live with dementia and Alzheimer’s disease, the social and physical isolation is challenging. Help us engage the community and bring Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias into the forefront of conversation. Help us end the stigma and raise funds for essential programs, education and services. Together we can make a difference. We are also organizing a motorcade for memories across the region on Saturday, May 30th, 2020, to join in solidarity with long-term care and retirement homes in our community. Please join us in a show of support for our most vulnerable citizens. Convoys will start at 10 a.m. Please let us know which municipal convoy you’d like to join. Once we have your RSVP, we will send you details on meeting locations and instructions.
