Give 2X the help and hope to those living with Alzheimer's. [Alzheimer's Association]( [DONATE NOW]( [End of Summer $50,000 Matching Gift Challenge]( Dear Friend, It's not every day you get an opportunity to make double the impact in a fight this important, and this is the day. A group of our Alois Society members graciously stepped forward and created this [End of Summer $50,000 Match Challenge](. They understand how important the fight to end Alzheimer's disease is and how we all have to work together to end it. Now it's up to you, and time is running out. There are just days left to for you to make DOUBLE the impact. Both the matching funds, and your generous end of summer gift, will help provide care and support and advance Alzheimer's research. [Don't miss your opportunity to achieve 2X the impact with one gift.]( Care, support, research and advocacy — you can achieve 2X the impact with one gift. [$16 can become $32.]( [$30 can become $60.]( [$50 can become $100.]( [Double my impact now.]( I am excited about the progress we're making in Alzheimer's and dementia research. Right now, Food and Drug Administration-approved treatments are available that could change the course of this disease for some people living with early Alzheimer's. These treatments could mean a better quality of life. They would allow people more time to participate in daily activities, remain independent and make future health care decisions. Our work together is especially crucial to urge policymakers to make Alzheimer's a national priority so that existing and emerging treatments are accessible and affordable for everyone who can benefit from them. All individuals, families and caregivers facing this devastating fatal disease deserve an opportunity to access these life-changing treatments. While these treatments are a tremendous step forward, our work is far from done. More treatments that target the disease from all angles are needed. We won't rest until everyone living with Alzheimer's can get the treatment and care and support they need and deserve. There is a lot at stake. [When you make your first gift now]( we'll put your generous contribution directly to work providing care and support, advancing research and driving pivotal advocacy efforts. [Donate Now]( Too often, people living with Alzheimer's don't know where to turn to get the help they need or answers to their questions. When you [join our End of Summer $50,000 Match Challenge, your gift can have TWICE the impact]( on advancing global research and helping make care and support available in communities across the country. You'll also help people like Tony Gonzales, an Alzheimer's Association National Early-Stage Advisor. Tony was diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment — which can develop into Alzheimer's disease — in 2021. He and his wife, Kori, turned to the Alzheimer's Association for support, resources and a community to lean on. We answered the call — and were there for Tony and his family when they needed us most. And thanks to the support of friends like you, we're active in communities nationwide providing support and education and making sure the voices of those with Alzheimer's are heard. Now more than ever, we need your continued support in this fight to give more people like Tony and Kori hope, and to provide help and hope to the millions of people across the United States who are battling this devastating disease. Please don't let this amazing opportunity pass you by. [Your support today can go twice as far in supporting our efforts in the community as well as advancing research and providing care.]( Friend, caring people just like you have led us to make great strides toward our goal: drive breakthrough research and make sure everyone who can benefit has access to early detection and accurate diagnosis, these approved treatments and care and support — and we're so grateful to them all.
