Walk to End Alzheimer's

From 12:00PM to 5:00PM

You are one person...but you can move a nation! Help the Rhode Island Chapter of the Alzheimer's Association by participating in a walk to end Alzheimer's Disease! Join the walk at Noon at Salve Regina University's O'Hare Academic Center in Newport. After the walk, return to music, pizza, kid's games, prizes and more! Last year over 2000 people gathered between the two walks. Come have fun and help out a good cause at the same time! Help raise money for programs and services for Rhode Islanders afflicted with Alzheimer's Disease. Register online at alz.org/ri or call 1-800-272-3900 to participate!
