We are in search of a volunteer experienced in grant research and writing to help us build our financial breadth in the Kern, Kings, Inyo and Tulare counties. This person will work very closely with the Regional Director to identify opportunities for grant funding in these counties specifically around concern for Alzheimer's and other types of dementia. There's a lot of opportunity here and we would love an expert's assistance in growing our support in these counties.

Mission Statement
Our mission. To eliminate Alzheimer's disease through the advancement of research; to provide and enhance care and support for all affected; and to reduce the risk of dementia through the promotion of brain health.
Description
There are more than 5 million people with Alzheimer’s disease in the United States and 35 million worldwide. These numbers are expected to skyrocket to a projected 13.8 million and 115 million, respectively, by midcentury. The potential of earlier diagnosis and the development of better treatments may significantly change the experience of Alzheimer’s for millions of people. In the meantime, the cost of care will rise dramatically. These factors will provide unprecedented challenges and opportunities for the Alzheimer’s Association.
We are here to support the Kern, Kings, Inyo and Tulare Counties and in order to make the biggest impact possible, we need volunteers to help us as champion's in the communities we serve.
