The Long Goodbye: Impact of Alzheimer’s on the Community

“Few will have the greatness to bend history itself; but each of us can work to change a small portion of events, and in the total; of all those acts will be written the history of this generation.” Robert F. Kennedy

Please come out on to a community event on August 28, 2008 from 6:30pm – 8:30pm at the National Press Club to raise awareness of Alzheimer’s disease in the community. My friend Sasha Horne and myself are hosting The Long Goodbye: Impact of Alzheimer’s on the Community as part of our Blondes vs. Brunettes fundraising campaign.

Early Symptoms and Prevention of Alzheimer’s Disease
In this presentation, Mr. Anthony Sudler will discuss how to identify signs and symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease, the importance of early intervention, treatment options, and community resources.

Complimentary Hors d’oeuvre and cash bar
Suggested Donation: $20.00

All proceeds go to benefit benefit the Alzheimer’s Association. Since 2005, Blondes vs. Brunettes has raised more than $75,000 for the Alzheimer’s Association National Capital Area Chapter. This unique charity has brought some of Washington, D.C.’s most prominent young women leaders together to raise awareness about the disease – sometimes occurring in individuals as young as 30 – and funds for the Chapter so that it may continue to provide services and programs – at no or low cost – to area residents.
