ORGANIZATION: Alzheimer's Association Minnesota-North Dakota
Serve on the Committee that helps to plan, coordinate and facilitate the Walk to End Alzheimer’s, the world's largest event to raise awareness and funds for Alzheimer's care, support and research. Held annually in more than 600 communities nationwide, this inspiring event calls on participants of all ages and abilities to reclaim the future for millions. Together, we can end Alzheimer’s disease, the nation’s sixth-leading cause of death.
The Walk to End Alzheimer's would not be possible without the support of volunteers. Specifically, Walk Committee members can get involved in a wide variety of projects related to special event planning and management. Examples of projects include sponsor recruitment, team recruitment, team retention, marketing and outreach, and logistics.
The mission of the Alzheimer’s Association is to eliminate Alzheimer’s disease through the advancement of research; to provide and enhance support for all affected; and to reduce the risk of dementia through the promotion of brain health.

The Alzheimer's Association Minnesota-North Dakota has been providing services, information, and advocacy for over 30 years to people with dementia, their families and health care providers. This Chapter is one of seven founding chapters of the National Alzheimer's Association, headquartered in Chicago. It was started by family caregivers who came together around a common need of getting support and help for their loved ones with dementia. Since 1979, our donor-supported, nonprofit Alzheimer's Association has provided reliable information and care consultation; created supportive services for families; increased funding for dementia research; and influenced public policy changes.
