Earlier this month the Harrah’s Foundation donated $1 million to the Alzheimer’s Association.
Harrah’s Foundation was the primary sponsor of World Alzheimer’s Day (Sept. 21), offering a $1 million matching grant to assist in raising awareness and funds to fight Alzheimer’s disease. The Association’s World Alzheimer’s Day efforts raised $1.8 million, with the Harrah’s Foundation’s generous donation bringing the total to $2.8 million. (ref)
It’s great to see this rising awareness in Alzheimer’s and the need for more research.
