The Longest Day Event: Fighting Alzheimer’s Disease

The Longest Day is all about love. Love for all those affected by Alzheimer’s disease. On the summer solstice, June 21, join Fitness Galore as we team up with the Alzheimer’s Association and select an activity we love — or an activity loved by those affected — to help end Alzheimer’s. Together, we will raise funds and awareness for care and support while advancing research toward the first survivor of Alzheimer’s.

Join our team   and/or please share your fitness ( workouts, training, cycling, swimming, etc.,) and wellness (relaxing, spa day, eating healthy, reading etc.,) related #TheLongestDay #ENDALZ posts with us too by using hashtag #FitnessGalore. 

GET STARTED!

STEP 1
SELECT AN ACTIVITY YOU LOVE
Visit Alzheimer’s Homepage to sign up and select an activity! Do something you love — or honor a caregiver, someone living with Alzheimer’s, or someone you’ve lost by selecting his or her favorite hobby. From swimming to scrapbooking, you’re limited only by your imagination.
STEP 2
PICK A WAY TO PARTICIPATE
Start or join a team, host an event, or register as an individual. Choose the way that works best for you! Have friends and family across the globe that want to join you? Start an Anywhere Team.

STEP 3

RAISE MONEY TO MOVE THE CAUSE FORWARD 

To advance research and provide care and support, each participant is asked to raise funds for the efforts of the Alzheimer’s Association. Start fundraising early and you’ll see your total skyrocket. Association staff can help with tools, tips and advice.

STEP 4
PLAN YOUR DAY
Join our team, or host an event, get organized now — send invitations, organize supplies and strategize for the big day. If you’re participating solo, think about the support you will need. A photographer? Cheerleaders? Ask friends and family to help.
STEP 5
PARTICIPATE — AND CELEBRATE!
On The Longest Day, you’re part of a global movement to help end Alzheimer’s disease. Share your photos, stories and fundraising successes on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram and show your love across the world by using the hashtags #TheLongestDay and #ENDALZ.
