Reflecting on 2024: Progress, Perseverance, and Hope in the Fight Against Alzheimer’s
As the year comes to a close, it’s a powerful time to reflect on the remarkable progress we’ve made together in the fight against Alzheimer’s. Thanks to your dedication and support, 2024 has been a historic year.
One of the most significant milestones came with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s approval of treatments that can change the course of Alzheimer’s for some individuals. This breakthrough marks the dawn of a new era—one filled with hope and possibilities for countless families impacted by this disease.
Your Impact Powers Progress
These advancements wouldn’t have been possible without champions like you. Your participation in initiatives like the Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s® and your generous contributions fuel groundbreaking research and provide essential care and support for families navigating Alzheimer’s and other dementias.
But our work isn’t done. While the Walk season may be over, our fight continues. We have until December 31 to hit our year-end goal, and every dollar raised directly supports Illinois residents and their caregivers, while driving forward research for treatments and a cure.
