Unite in a movement to reclaim the future for millions. Join our Rovin' Rotarian team for the Alzheimer's Association Walk to End Alzheimer's®, the nation's largest event to raise awareness and funds to fight Alzheimer's disease. Together, we can advance research to treat and prevent Alzheimer's, and provide programs and support to improve the lives of millions of affected Americans.
Our Bay Area/Galveston County walk is set for October 17, 2020.
This year’s event won’t be a large in-person gathering — instead, we invite you to walk in small teams of friends and family while others in your community do the same. Proper social distancing should be observed. Because we are all still walking and fundraising for the same thing: a world without Alzheimer’s and all other dementia.
