Thank you so much for supporting me on this journey. This fundraiser is incredibly personal to me.

Many of you know that my mom lived with Alzheimer’s disease. Watching someone you love slowly change because of dementia is one of the hardest experiences a family can face. It was heartbreaking, and there were many moments of sadness, uncertainty, and feeling completely overwhelmed.

When I discovered Alzheimer Calgary, I was deeply moved. I actually cried because of the kindness and compassion they showed me. Although I wish I had connected with them much earlier in my mom’s journey, they were there for me when I needed support the most. They genuinely cared, offered guidance, and wanted to help in every way they could.

Now, I want to give back so other families can receive that same support, hopefully much earlier than I did. No one should have to navigate dementia alone.

Every donation, no matter the size, helps Alzheimer Calgary continue providing education, resources, support groups, and compassionate care for individuals living with dementia and for the families who love them.

Thank you for helping me honour my mom’s memory and for making a meaningful difference in the lives of other families facing Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia. Your generosity truly means more than words can express.

With gratitude,
