CUMRU TWP., Pa. – Folks who live and work at the Heritage at Green Hills are taking some important steps to raise awareness about one of the most widespread neurodegenerative conditions.
As the culmination of a year-long fundraising effort to support the Alzheimer’s Association, residents took part in a Walk to End Alzheimer’s Disease at the senior living community in Cumru Township on Thursday afternoon.
Alzheimers disease affects more than 7 million Americans and tens of millions of people globally, being the most frequent form of dementia.
If community members would like to get involved, Berks County’s Walk to End Alzheimer’s is set to occur on October 17th at the Heritage Center in Bern Township.
