💜 Why I Fundraise: Walking to End Alzheimer’s in Honor of Sandy

This summer, as many of you know, I’ve committed to raising awareness and funds for the Alzheimer’s Association. This cause is deeply personal to me, and I want to share the “why” behind my efforts.

In Honor of Sandy 💜

My dear friend Sandy Larson lost her battle with Alzheimer’s on March 30, 2015, at just 50 years old. Sandy was a beautiful soul, full of laughter, warmth, and love for her family. When she was diagnosed, her husband and children cared for her with incredible strength and compassion until her passing. Their journey opened my eyes to the emotional and physical toll Alzheimer’s takes—not only on those diagnosed but also on the families who walk the path alongside them.

I walk and fundraise not only for Sandy, but for her loved ones, and for the more than 6 million Americans currently living with Alzheimer’s. Every donation is a step closer to a world without this devastating disease.

Why the Alzheimer’s Association?

The Alzheimer’s Association provides critical resources:

• 🟣 Support groups and helplines for families in crisis.

• 🟣 Educational programs to help caregivers navigate this journey.

• 🟣 Funding groundbreaking research for treatment and, one day, a cure.

Your support doesn’t just go to research—it directly impacts families right here in our communities.

My Goal & Promise

I’ve set a fundraising goal of $3,000. To make your support even more meaningful, I will personally donate an additional $10 in honor of you and your family for every contribution made. Together, we can multiply the impact.

How You Can Help 🙏

1. Donate → Every dollar matters. You can contribute directly through my fundraising page: https://act.alz.org/site/TR?fr_id=18983&pg=personal&px=6101354.

2. Share → Spread the word by sharing my story and link with your friends, family, or colleagues. Awareness is just as important as donations.

3. Wear Purple → Join me in raising awareness by showing support during Alzheimer’s Awareness events and activities.

Together, We Can End Alzheimer’s

This journey is not just about raising money—it’s about honoring Sandy, supporting her loved ones, and standing in solidarity with millions of families who deserve hope.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for walking beside me in this fight. 💜
