Jog Your Memory 5k

FOR 2018, 80% PERCENT OF RACE PROCEEDS WILL BE GIVEN TO OUR PARTNER, THE CURE ALZHEIMER'S FUND (CUREALZ). EVERY DOLLAR THEY SPEND GOES TO RESEARCH AND GETS US A STEP CLOSER TO FINDING A CURE!  IN ADDITION TO CUREALZ, WE WILL DONATE 20% OF RACE DONATIONS TO LOCAL FAMILIES AND RESIDENTS IN NEED.

Cure Alzheimer’s Fund: Our Story

For many years, Alzheimer’s disease research was completely stifled by a lack of funding. Pharmaceutical companies were too wary of past failures to fund any new drug development. The drug pipeline was coming up dry, and researchers weren’t encouraged to think big or bold.

Cure Alzheimer’s Fund has changed that.
