Your mother, father, brother, sister, aunt, uncle, grandparent or possibly even you, ((Mrs. Samplexxxxxxx)) could be its next victim. And as you know, there s no way to stop the progressive memory loss, disorientation, personality changes, loss of language and, ultimately, death that mark this devastating disease. At least there s no way to stop it yet. Which is why I m writing you today and asking for your help. Your gift of (($1.5HPC)), (($HPC)), or even possibly (($2HPC)) will help us find a way to stop Alzheimer s once and for all.

Because we fund the most promising, leading-edge research projects, many scientists get their first grant from Alzheimer s Disease Research (ADR). This initial grant validates the work of these scientists and opens the door for more grants from other sources. This is why your generous support is so critical.
