Giving to Alzheimer's Services
There are currently over 8,500 people living in our region with dementia, and as the population ages that number will increase dramatically every year. For every individual or family that we help, there are hundreds of others who need our services. Right now, unfortunately, there is no cure or medicine to change the course of the disease, so a well trained and supported caregiver is the best hope we can offer those currently living with a dementia like Alzheimer's. Together through generous donors and memorials, we can ensure that the caregivers in our region have the support, respite, and training they need to provide the best care possible for the individuals living with dementia.
Everything Alzheimer's Services does - from our free community education programs to our respite grants - are a result of the gifts from donors, like you, who have supported Alzheimer's Services. Because of generous donors we can continue to support and be there for those currently living with Alzheimer's and those who care for them throughout Cape Cod and the Islands.
