We are actively recruiting volunteers for the planning committee for our Coachella Valley Walk to End Alzheimer's, scheduled for March 2015. There are so many ways to help on our committee, such as with obtaining sponsorships, being a part of the public relations/marketing team, registering Walk teams, and handling day-of Walk operations. We have such a great group of people who are committed to ending Alzheimer's disease, so please contact me at MrsCAInternational2014@gmail.com for more information on how you can be a part of this dynamic committee!!!
Also coming up is an Alzheimer's Association fundraising event called "Spa Soiree for a Cause" on Thursday, May 8th from 5:30 - 8:00 p.m. at The Spa at Westin Mission Hills. I will be there with bells on and what a great way to raise some much needed funds for the Association with some of your closest friends!
And just released early in March, our 2014 Facts and Figures from the Alzheimer's Association. In this image alone, you can see, if nothing is done about preventing or curing Alzheimer's disease, the percentage change in the number of seniors living with Alzheimer’s disease will go from 12% in 2014, to 9% in 2020 to 45% in 2025! We MUST end this disease!
Lots of sunshine from the desert,
