About Us
Alzheimer’s is the third

leading cause of death in the United States, and the only top-10 deadly disease not to have a treatment or cure.

In 2018, Alzheimer’s and other dementias

will cost the United States $277 billion, the most costly disease in America.

Every 65 seconds,

another family learns a loved one has been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s.

2/3 of all people

living with Alzheimer’s are women.

African-Americans are 2-3x

more likely to have Alzheimer’s than others.

Latinos are 1.5x

more likely to have Alzheimer’s than others.
