HOW WILL YOU MAKE THE FIGHT TO END ALZHEIMER’S YOUR OWN?
The Longest Day (June 20th) is a special event dedicated to love for our family members, friends, and neighbors living with Alzheimer’s disease, and for their heroic caregivers, whose days are truly never-ending. This event brings together people from all walks of life to support the fight against Alzheimer’s in a unique and personal way.
The Longest Day is an annual event organized by the Alzheimer’s Association, symbolizing the challenging journey of those affected by Alzheimer’s disease. It takes place on the summer solstice, the longest day of the year (June 20), to honor the endurance and strength of those facing Alzheimer’s every day.
