Caregiver To You In the Community

Modesto Walk to End Alzheimer’s

The Caregiver To You team for the Walk to End Alzheimer’s is still raising money for the Alzheimer’s Association!

To contribute to our effort, click here (http://act.alz.org/site/TR?fr_id=14321&pg=personal&px=19820411) or see more opportunities below.

The 2021 Modesto Walk to End Alzheimer’s has already raised over $100,000, but we’re still about $15,000 away from our goal, so we still need your help! The walk itself was in October, but our goal includes all funds raised anytime in 2021!

Here are some other ways to support the cause:

• The amazing Linda Lowe is selling jars of her famous blackberry jam! Get an 8oz jar for a donation of $5, or 16oz for a donation of $10 or more! Contact her at [email protected] to place your order!
• Our fearless leader Lem Klein is fundraising by selling See’s Candies at the same prices you’ll see in-store. Order online and ship anywhere in the country! https://www.yumraising.com/secure/walktea_elsies_angels_walk_to_end_alzheimers61/candy?h=LemKle6500&c=fb228l&fbclid=lwARlqFqas_r UYqY-R0Kk4ihl4U3cnNX5okVvVSlooTzpbNevg QnzAzlo5TRY
• One of our most dedicated Walk Committee volunteers, Melissa Shook, is also pre-selling tickets for a Cool Hand Luke’s dinner on November 18, 2021. $25 per ticket gets you chicken, steak or ribs, a side dish, a salad, plus their famous dinner rolls and campfire beans! Call the office or send an e-mail to [email protected] to get your tickets!
• We’ll never turn away a direct donation to our Caregiver To You team effort! http://act.alz.org/site/TR?fr_id=14321&pg=personal&px=19820411

New for the 2021 Walk Event was that the Walk Committee for Modesto got a new member: Our CEO Jeremy Matthews jumped right in and took charge of the setup and logistics for the event. Jeremy was so instrumental to the success of the event that he failed to take a single picture of his own to share on our page!

Committee members met monthly, and then weekly as the event date approached. They planned fundraisers, recruited and tracked the progress of Team Leaders, coordinated vendors and sponsorships, and worked to make sure that the day itself was successful.

If you would like to donate, attend, or even help plan the 2022 Walk to End Alzheimer’s, reach out to Jeremy directly at 209-222-3797 or [email protected].
