On Sunday, May 31, I’m participating in the IG Wealth Management Walk for Alzheimer’s. The Walk provides an opportunity for communities to take action to change the future for the more than 85,000 British Columbians living with dementia and the people who care for them.
I am walking for the first time this year in memory of my father who passed away from dementia last year and my mother who lives with dementia. Dementia has touched our families life for the last 5 years and we are grateful for the support, resources, and care our family has received throughout this journey.
Funds raised will help provide in-person and virtual programs, services and education for families facing dementia, providing the support they need to maintain the best possible quality of life throughout the progression of the disease, as well as enabling critical research to change the future of the disease.
With your help, the Alzheimer Society of BC and Yukon can continue its vital work. Please consider donating in support of my walk.
