The Longest Day is the day with the most light - the summer solstice. On June 20, people from across the world will fight the darkness of Alzheimer’s through a fundraising activity of their choice.
Registration is now open for The Longest Day 2021, with upgraded welcome kits for those who register by February 28 (upgraded performance shirt). This unique fundraiser gives participants the opportunity to do what they do best - whether that’s biking, baking, painting, golfing, or any other hobby you can think of - and do it to help achieve our vision of a world without Alzheimer’s and all other dementia.
An informational kickoff call will be held on Tuesday, February 9 at 5:30 PM. Please register here: https://bit.ly/ TLDKickOff2021.
