Participants of all ages and abilities are invited to register for free online or via phone 860.828.2828 and help reclaim the future for millions. Event donations will be accepted through December 15, 2015 and can also be made online at alz.org/ct.
The Walk to End Alzheimer’s will feature live music, children’s activities, a Zumba warm-up prior to the three-mile scenic walk and a meaningful tribute ceremony. Greenwich resident and Emmy-Award-Winning TV News Reporter Kendra Farn will be the emcee for the event. Kendra is a Champion in the inaugural Fight to End Alzheimer’s Women’s Campaign that launched in July.
“I lost my mother to Alzheimer’s disease far too early. She was diagnosed when she was just 60 years old. Whatever I can do to raise awareness and fight this disease for my daughters and generations to come, I will do,” offers Kendra.
