The Alzheimer’s Association NM Chapter is asking for your participation at our annual Unforegettable Golf Classic on May 8th 2023.The Alzheimer's Association® is the leading voluntary health organization in Alzheimer's
care, support and research. Our vision is a world without Alzheimer's and all other
dementia.TM Our mission is leading the way in ending Alzheimer's and all other dementia —

quality care and support.
There are no barriers to Alzheimer’s when it comes to gender, ethnicity, or age. The number
of families in New Mexico affected by Alzheimer’s is growing. The impact on families is
devastating, economically and emotionally. Many of your staff may be facing the effects of
Alzheimer’s or dementia in some way in their family right now.
● There are more than 43,000 people living with Alzheimer’s in New Mexico with an
expected growth of 53,000 by 2025.
● 85,000 family caregivers bear the burden of the disease with 157 million hours of
unpaid care.
● $227 million is the cost of Alzheimer’s to the state’s Medicaid Program
As the largest nonprofit funder of Alzheimer's research, the Association is committed to
advancing vital research toward methods of treatment, prevention and, ultimately, a cure.
Last year, funds raised in New Mexico contributed to the investment of more than $208
million in over 590 scientific investigations nationwide.
We hope you will consider this opportunity to take a step to help eradicate
Alzheimer’s and other dementia by joining us for our annual Golf Classic on May 8th 2023.
