A Night to Remember is our annual Alzheimer's fundraising gala. This will be our 8th year holding the event and so far, our all-volunteer organization has been able to raise just over $400,000! One of the highlights of our gala is the social time where we have fun games, a raffle and a silent auction. Our supporters look forward to what we have to offer each year and we LOVE the opportunity to use this to increase what we are able to raise for Alzheimer's care and research! The Item Donation Committee seeks out donations from local businesses to use in our raffle and silent auction. In addition, we have a Restaurant Pull that features gift cards from area restaurants, coffee shops and bakeries, se we are always seeking those donations as well. You will be given all the resources you need including a printed donation request letter, electronic copies and all related non-profit/tax exempt donation documents. Each person signs up for the number of businesses and restaurants they want to visit. If you only want to commit to a few, that is fine! This is a really fun team to pe a part of because of the generosity of the businesses in our community. We are blown away every year! It is also a way to make a real and tangible difference in our fight against Alzheimer's. It is so fun for our committee members to see the dollars we were able to raise as a result of the donations they were able to acquire. Our donation drive will run from July through September 29 th, so time commitment is very flexible. We are looking for people who are enthusiastic, energetic and would love to make a visit in person with the area businesses and restaurants they sign up for. We would love to tell you more about how you can be involved and answer any questions you might have!

A Night to Remember is our annual Alzheimer's fundraising gala. This will be our 8th year holding the event and it will once again be at Courtyard by Marriott in Lafayette. The night includes dinner, entertainment, programming and the awarding of our annual Caregiver of the Year award. We also have an exciting social time prior to dinner that has games, a raffle and silent auction. We need volunteers that can help out to check in our guests when they arrive, sell raffle tickets, staff our games and help with the silent auction and raffle once winners have been picked. The event begins at 5:00 pm and lasts till about 9:00 pm. If you are able to stay the whole time, that would be great! We are also able to accommodate people that need to only volunteer part of that time. If you are interested, you can respond through this site and our volunteer coordinator, Meghann, will get in touch with you and answer any questions you might have and help you find the place that is just right for you the night of our event! We do cherish our volunteers so dinner, snacks and drinks throughout the night will be provided!
