Today, an estimated 50 million people worldwide are living with
Alzheimer's or other dementias, including more than 5 million Americans
in the US alone. 16 million friends and family members are providing
their care. We must take ACTION now, or these numbers will continue to
rise.
My name is Joseph Potz from Crestline, California. I am running across the United States from Huntington Beach, South Carolina to Huntington Beach, California. I will be covering more than 3,000 miles through 16 states to raise awareness for the The Longest Day.
The Longest Day is the day of the year with the most light - the summer solstice. It is also the day that I have committed to fight Alzheimer's disease! I am participating in The Longest Day, a fundraising event to advance the care, support and research efforts of the Alzheimer's Association.
Please join me as I travel ACROSS THE UNITED STATES through 16 states and 3,000 miles to stand up to the darkness of Alzheimer's. Please also consider donating to my fundraising efforts to help the Alzheimer's Association support all of those facing the disease.
Thanks and HAPPY TRAILS!
Joseph Potz
