Hello Friends & Family,
Happy spring! It's that time of year when I start to think about getting outside and once again participating in the annual IG Wealth Management Walk for Alzheimer's in Muskoka. This year the walk takes place on May 30th at Bracebridge Muskoka Lakes Secondary School. If you live in the area, please consider walking yourself this year and encouraging your friends and family to support you. You can find out how to get started by visiting the Alzheimer's Society of Muskoka on Manitoba Street in Bracebridge just across from the Shoppers Drug Mart or search online at www.walkforalzheimers.ca.
Last year my friend Ann Knight, who had been the top fundraiser for the Muskoka Walk for many years, was unable to walk due to mobility issues. She was kind enough to encourage her past supporters to support me. As a result, I raised an incredible $4,518 and was recognized as the top fundraiser in the Muskoka Walk. Unfortunately, Ann passed away on November 18, 2025. Now I feel an obligation to carry on Ann's legacy.
I hope you will support me this year and help me reach my goal of $4000. All funds raised by me go to help people living with dementia in Muskoka and Parry Sound. Right now, more than half a million Canadians are living with dementia. By 2031, this number will increase to nearly a million. Your donation will help fund the growing demand for programs and services offered through the Alzheimer Society. These services make all the difference in the way that people affected by dementia are able to manage the disease and live life to the fullest.
Thank you for your support!
Sincerely,
Lynne Quattro/Quattrociocchi
