Walk to End Alzheimer’s

Thursday on DelmarvaLife, we learned just how much of our population is affected by Alzheimer’s Disease. According to the Alzheimer’s Association, 5.3 Million Americans are living with the disease. In fact, the Association reports, someone develops Alzheimer’s every 67 seconds, and it’s the sixth leading cause of death.

You can play a role in trying to put an end to Alzheimer’s Disease. The Alzheimer’s Association is holding a couple of walks this fall. There will be one in Rehoboth Beach and one in Salisbury. For more information about the Rehoboth Beach Walk to End Alzheimer’s, call Kathryn DiSalvo at 302-633-4420. To learn more about the walk in Salisbury, call Ellen Torres at 410-561-9099.
