Join Me in Fighting Alzheimer's Disease

As you may already know, I am a strong supporter of the Alzheimer's Association Memory Walk. This will be my 7th year participating. Alzheimer's disease can be devastating, affecting not only the patient, but the entire family. It is the leading reason for long-term care, which is why I'm so passionate about helping to find a cure. Last year I raised $2000 for the Alzheimer's Association; my goal this year is $2500.

The Alzheimer's Association is the only national voluntary health organization dedicated to funding research to conquer Alzheimer's disease. The annual Memory Walk is the organization's largest fundraising event. In addition to funding national research, the walk provides funds for local services to afflicted individuals and their families.

I need your help! Please sponsor me for the Memory Walk by making a tax-deductible contribution to the Alzheimer's Association. Any size contribution will be greatly appreciated and will help in the fight against Alzheimer's disease. There are two ways to contribute:

  • Mail a check payable to the Alzheimer's Association to:
    AM Warner Insurance, 4704 Miles Lane, Suite B, Louisville, KY 40219
  • Donate by credit card online by going to http://www.08louisvillememorywalk.kintera.org
    Along the top choice bar, click Find a Walker
    Enter my name, Allison Warner, and click Search
    Scroll down to my name and click on it
    Follow the prompts

If you have any questions or have trouble contributing online, please call me at 502-742-4979. I'd be happy to walk you through the process.

The Louisville Memory Walk will be held on Saturday, September 6, so please make your contribution as early as possible. I invite you to walk with me. It's always a sunny day, the walk in only 1 mile, and we have a great time.

Thank you for supporting the Alzheimer's Association and me. Together we can make a difference!
