Westchester County (NY) Chapter of The Links, Incorporated members
supported the 2016 Alzheimer Walk at White Plains High School. In addition to
walking, the members planted "flowers" in the Promise Garden to best
represent their connection to the disease. Alzheimer is a type of dementia that
causes problems with memory, thinking and behavior. Symptoms usually develop
slowly and get worse over time, becoming severe enough to interfere with daily
tasks. The National Trends &
Services and the Health & Human Services facets made a donation towards the
fundraiser.
