NARFE December
This past month, we've made great strides together in the fight against Alzheimer's thanks to NARFE's dedication to finding a cure for this devastating disease. After an incredible $1 million pledge from NARFE, the Alzheimer's Association was able to match those funds, getting us even closer to our shared vision of a world without Alzheimer's. We're so thankful for our partnership and the generosity that NARFE and its members have shown.
Additionally, NARFE has raised a record breaking $73,000+ this Walk season. NARFE members are so close to raising $75,000, please spread the word that Walk to End Alzheimer's® funds are collected until Dec. 31 and will count toward the overall goal of $14 million!
Wishing everyone a safe and happy holiday season.
