The Di Duca Ellingson, APC law firm recently demonstrated its commitment to making a difference by participating in the Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s, held on Saturday, October 26th in Chico, CA. The event was an opportunity not only to raise funds but also to foster awareness of a disease that affects countless families, friends, and neighbors. Our firm was proud to form a team of enthusiastic participants and successfully raised funds to support this important cause in our local community.
Why the Walk to End Alzheimer’s Matters
Alzheimer’s disease impacts over 6 million Americans and is the sixth leading cause of death in the United States. The disease affects not only those diagnosed but also their families, caregivers, and communities. As a progressive neurological disorder, Alzheimer’s robs individuals of their memory, cognitive abilities, and, ultimately, their independence. This can lead to a profound sense of loss, both for the individuals themselves and for their loved ones who watch their cherished family members fade away.
The emotional toll is significant, but so are the financial and logistical challenges. Families often bear heavy burdens in providing long-term care, managing medical treatments, and navigating legal matters related to estate planning, powers of attorney, and guardianship. It’s for these reasons that the Walk to End Alzheimer’s stands out as more than just an event—it’s a movement to bring hope, resources, and support to those affected by this devastating disease.
The funds raised through the Walk to End Alzheimer’s support a range of crucial initiatives. They provide free, confidential resources to caregivers and families, finance critical Alzheimer’s research, and sustain local programs that assist families in managing the challenges of the disease. We are proud to contribute to these efforts, knowing that every dollar raised brings hope one step closer to a world without Alzheimer’s.
