The Alzheimer's Foundation of America, AFA, has a mission which is to provide optimal care and services to individuals confronting dementia, and to their caregivers and families—through member organizations dedicated to improving quality of life. Just like fighting cancer or any other disease, no one should be left fighting alone. People with Alzheimer's disease need the full support of their friends and family to battle the disease to lead a better life. The effects of Alzheimer's are the loss of memory, thinking and language skills, and behavioral changes. It is most common in older people aged 65 and up. This coming holiday season, you can help to support AFA's good cause against Alzheimer's disease by shopping at the Alzheimer's Foundation of America eStore for a holiday gift of your choice. Take note that all the proceeds from the sales of the eStore benefits the AFA directly.
It is always true that seeking a cure to Alzheimer's is important. However, ensuring quality care for those who suffer from the disease must not be overlooked. What better time to show your support for this noble organization than this coming holiday season to buy a few presents of your shopping list from the AFA eStore and promote this good cause to your recipients. I am sure they will recognize your good intention and your caring heart and join the rally to give more attention and support to the AFA. I am sure everyone has at least a little bit of exposure to the Alzheimer's disease. If none of your family members are diagnosed with Alzheimer's, then good for you. It was even made its way into America's top drama series, Grey's Anatomy, where Meredith Grey's mother had Alzheimer's. As we continue to get a cure for this disease, we should never overlook the importance of quality care for those who suffer from Alzheimer's disease. We fight, and we fight together, because together, we can succeed.
