💜We are excited to collaborate with Circles in the Sand once more this year. Mark your calendars for August 14, when we will take our annual beach walk! By doing so a bit later than usual, we hope to make the most of the sunshine and fundraising opportunities, ultimately working together to end Alzheimer’s.

🌊💜 BIG NEWS! 💜🌊
Thanks to your support, we raised an additional $817 on Saturday at the Coastal Memory Walk! 🎉👏

Not only did you show up and create a powerful purple wave on the Bandon beach — you also went above and beyond to help fund critical Alzheimer’s support services.

Because of you, more dollars are going directly to the 24/7 Alzheimer’s Helpline, where caregivers and families can get real answers, emotional support, and guidance at any hour of the day. 📞💬

Together, we’re walking toward a future without Alzheimer’s 💪💜
