<\/a><\/h1>\nMore than 5 million Americans have Alzheimer’s, and the disease takes a huge toll on our society. In addition to the loss of patients’ memories and cognitive skills, Alzheimer’s creates intense caregiving responsibilities for family members<\/strong><\/a>, who take on more than 18 billion hours of unpaid caregiving each year and often suffer stress-related health problems of their own. To help find better treatments for Alzheimer’s, to raise awareness of the disease’s impact, and to fund support for families affected by Alzheimer’s, local and state groups around the country are hosting fundraiser walks this fall. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n SeniorAdvisor.com is proud to partner with the local groups below to help raise funds for their walks\u2014and you can help, too.
