The Alzheimer’s Association will host its annual Memory Gala on Saturday, May 18. The event is a memorable night in the fight against a disease that erases such moments. Proceeds provide opportunities critical to fighting Alzheimer’s disease by raising funds for research and local support services.
Guests will enjoy a welcome reception, seated dinner, powerful mission moments, and auction, as well as dancing and musical entertainment provided by Musically Yours and the Herringbones. While the official deadline to reserve tickets and tables was April 30, contact Gala Director Sally Kay at sfkay@alz.org to check availability.
