The Longest Day in Support of Alzheimer’s
06.16.17
The Longest Day is all about love for those affected by Alzheimer's disease. On Wednesday, June 21--the summer solstice--you can team up with the Alzheimer’s Association and select any activity you love — or an activity loved by those affected — to help end Alzheimer’s. Together, you can help raise funds and awareness for care and support while advancing research toward the first survivor of Alzheimer’s.
Two local stores are celebrating the Longest Day in support of those affected with Alzheimer’s by holding events.
At Kendra Scott at Fashion Island, you can enjoy sips, sweets and jewels on Wednesday, June 21 from 5 to 8 p.m. 20% of the proceeds will benefit Alzheimer’s Association.
At Alex and Ani at Fashion Island and at Irvine Specirum on Wednesday, June 21 from 6 to 9 p.m. you can enjoy refreshments and explore the newest Alex and Ani collections. 15% of all Alex and Ani sales will be donated to Alzheimer’s Association.
RSVP at kgdurham@alz.org.
