Become A Champion
More than five million Americans are
currently living with Alzheimer’s disease,
and someone new is added to those ranks
every 71 seconds.
The Alzheimer’s Association has been
moving the cause forward for 27 years.
We’ve been the leader in Alzheimer care
and support since those origins and have
played a significant leadership role in fostering research
in understanding the disease, its potential treatments and
cure. In 2007, we moved the cause by building public
awareness and knowledge, encouraging a national voice
for those with the disease and focusing our mission
on reaching more people who need our support and
accelerating progress to end the disease.
The Alzheimer’s Association is
challenging more than five million
Americans - one for every person
living with the disease - to become a
Champion, learn about the disease and
join the fight against Alzheimer’s.
Indeed, we believe that the ultimate path of Alzheimer’s
is that of a controllable disease. Better diagnostic tools to
detect the disease at earlier stages — even before symptoms
appear — and disease-modifying drugs are closer than ever
before. Our staff worked closely with the U.S. Food and
Drug Administration to improve the drug approval process
by including input from those living with dementia and
their care partners. Also during the year, we advanced a
pilot program to encourage greater participation in clinical
research studies.
What is an Alzheimer’s
Champion?
d A Champion is a celebrity or well-
known figure.
d A Champion is a respected sports
figure or athlete.
d A Champion is a business leader.
d A Champion is a lawmaker.
d A Champion is a Memory Walker.
d A Champion is a grassroots activist.
d A Champion is a scientist or
researcher working toward a cure.
d A Champion is YOU.
While much work remains to slow or stop the progression
of Alzheimer’s disease, the advancement of science
increasingly gives us hope. Our organization has been part
of nearly every major advance in Alzheimer research since
our formation in 1982, and we have committed millions
of dollars in grants to promising research projects. To foster
the field of study, we host science conferences that are the
primary knowledge-sharing forums for thousands of the
world’s leading Alzheimer researchers.
As significant as our organization’s achievements have
been, we must still do more — as soon as possible. We are
driven by the reality facing the more than 5 million people
estimated to have Alzheimer’s today and the millions more
who will face the disease tomorrow. Our progress energizes
our staff, volunteers, donors and sponsors to move ever
faster to achieve our vision: a world without Alzheimer’s.
