Alzheimer Drug Discovery Foundation


I am constantly being inspired by the people around me and the issues they are concerned with. One of the largest diseases impacting our world today is Alzheimers - it is a disease that effects almost every one I know.

I was recently told about a foundation that is extremely impressive in fulfilling their mission towards improving the research for Alzheimer’s disease is the Alzheimer Drug Discovery Foundation. Established in 2004 in New York, the ADDF’s goal is to provide opportunities for the public to assist them in supporting scientists working on drug discovery for Alzheimer’s, a disease that currently effects 18 million Americans.

ADDF holds many events across the country in order to spread the word of its goals as a foundation. By visiting their website we can keep up with what they are accomplishing and how we can join in on their upcoming events. Continue to ask your friends about what types of organizations they are actively a part of, because through cooperation with friends charities grow rapidly and create amazing places in which to participate.

What charities are you a part of, let me know!
