The Working Women’s Network (WWN) is leading the way to Alzheimer’s first survivor by participating in the Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s®. Currently, more than 5 million Americans have Alzheimer’s and that number is expected to grow to as many as 16 million by 2050. Almost two-thirds of Americans with Alzheimer’s disease are women. Alzheimer’s kills more that breast cancer and prostate cancer combined.

Our future is at risk unless we can find a way to change the course of this disease. Together, we can end Alzheimer’s disease. Please make a donation to advance the care, support and research efforts of the Alzheimer’s Association. Thank you for joining the fight against Alzheimer’s!
