Alzheimer's Association - The Longest Day Lead

Save to Favorites

Georgia residents - we need you to join the fight against Alzheimer's!

The Longest Day is the day with the most light - the summer solstice. On June 21, thousands of participants from across the world come together to fight the darkness of Alzheimer's through an activity of their choice. Together, they use their creativity and passion to raise funds and awareness for the care, support and research efforts of the Alzheimer’s Association.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE
It’s easy - choose an activity you like to do and turn it into a fundraiser to fight
Alzheimer’s! Follow the steps below to get started.

1. Select an activity you enjoy at alz.org/thelongestday.

To advance critically needed research and provide care and support, each participant is
asked to raise funds through their activity for the Alzheimer's Association. Any activity
can be a fundraiser for The Longest Day, and many can be hosted virtually or in-person:

• If you’re an artist or crafter, lead a class for friends and family. Then host an art sale and donate the proceeds as your fundraiser.
• Organize a group marathon. Ask 26 friends and family members to run a mile and raise $100 each.
• Livestream a cooking demonstration and ask for donations to attend.
• Raise extra funds by adding a silent auction, challenge or competition to your activity. You can even ask for donations instead of birthday gifts!
