Last year, our team raised $5,000 for the Baltimore Walk to End Alzheimer’s. Hopkins’ Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center Director Dr. Marilyn Albert said, “It is wonderful to see so many members of the Hopkins community participate in the ‘Walk to End Alzheimer’s.’ The walk here in Baltimore, combined with those elsewhere in the US, represents the world’s largest event to raise awareness and funds for dementia and memory loss prevention, care, and research. The annual walk provides the funds that help the Association to advocate for improved care for patients and increased funding for research.”
The Johns Hopkins Aging & Alzheimer’s Centers Team is co-sponsored by the: Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center; Center on Aging & Health; Older American’s Independence Center; Alzheimer’s Disease Resource Center for Minority Aging Research; Hopkins’ Economics of Alzheimer’s Disease & Services Center; and the Memory and Alzheimer’s Treatment Center.
We look forward to seeing you there. Thank you for your support!
