Are you passionate about putting an end to Alzheimer's disease? Do you want to get more involved with the Alzheimer's Association and the Walk to End Alzheimer's? Then we need you! Join your local Walk to End Alzheimer's Planning Committee and help grow the movement to end Alzheimer's from the ground up.
Committee members plan each Walk to End Alzheimer's event from the kick-off to the wrap-up. All meetings and events remain virtual for 2021, as of now. Activities of your local committee include the following:

3. Team Retention: Responsible for managing relationships with past Walk teams

7. Logistics: Responsible for overseeing day-of-event logistics and volunteers
Select a subcommittee that best fits your skills and interests: Sponsorship, Team Recruitment, Team Retention, Marketing & Outreach, AIM-Advocacy, Mission or Logistics
Attend the virtual Committee Orientation to receive training on the basics of Alzheimer’s disease, learn about Association programs and services, and receive an introduction to the Walk event model.
