ALZHEIMERS BUS TRIPS
NARFE recently announced in an email to members that the NARFE Alzheimer’s Fund has achieved its goal of donating $15 million to Alzheimer’s research.
NARFE supports research into the causes, prevention, detection, and effective treatment of Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. NARFE National President Ken Thomas said, “We can be proud of what we have accomplished together as we work to find a cure.”
For nearly four decades, NARFE has been one of the Alzheimer’s Association’s top research funders and in September NARFE pledged to raise another $1 million by the end of 2025.
Chapter 180 has raised thousands of dollars for Alzheimer’s research through bus trips organized by Mary O’Dell, through silent auctions and other activities organized by Sharon Cordero, and through generous donations from its members.
In 2024, Mary’s bus trips have raised $ 4478.35 and $3230.00 in 2023. The Silent 2025 Auction in August raised $581.00 through the sale of auction items and cash donations. Chapter 180 can be proud of its efforts to help NARFE fulfill its ongoing commitment to Alzheimer’s research.
