On June 20, the summer solstice and the day with the most light, Wisconsin residents will join advocates across the world to participate in The Longest Day® and to fight the darkness of Alzheimer’s through a fundraising activity of their choice.
This will help to shine a light on the more than 5 million Americans living with Alzheimer’s or other dementias, and the more than 16 million family members and friends providing care and support.
“We are so grateful and inspired by our passionate participants who are finding creative ‘virtual’ ways to support The Longest Day to further our vision of a world without Alzheimer’s and all other dementia.”
• More than 5 million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s or other dementias, and more than 16 million family and friends are providing care and support.
