Brooke Grove joined the National Capital Area Walk to End Alzheimer’s in Washington, D.C., bringing together members of our Independent Living community and staff to walk, remember, and raise funds in support of the Alzheimer's Association.
Led by Co-Captain Andrea Rattigan, our Brooke Grove team came together with a shared commitment to supporting individuals and families affected by Alzheimer’s and other dementias.
The day held a special moment for Brooke Grove as our Chairman of the Board represented our community on stage during the opening ceremonies and Promise Garden Ceremony, carrying the orange flower, which represents those who support the mission of a world without Alzheimer’s and all other dementias.
"As we planned this year's ceremony, you and Brooke Grove have been on our minds, and we would be honored to invite you to hold the orange flower on stage. We feel it would be a beautiful way to recognize you and Brooke Grove's support and dedication year over year for our mission," shared Emily Rankin, Development Manager for the Alzheimer’s Association’s National Capital Area Chapter.
Brooke Grove has raised more than $530,000 for the Alzheimer’s Association over the years, and we’re not finished yet. Our current team goal is $20,000, and we’re about halfway there. Donations will continue to be accepted through the end of December.
Help us keep moving toward our goal and support the fight to end Alzheimer’s. 💜 Support the Brooke Grove team: https://bit.ly/2026WALKBG
