The Walk to End Alzheimer’s raised more than $20,000 at its debut in Brockport on September 22 and donations will continue to come in through November 15.
More than 170 Walkers joined the effort to bring an end to Alzheimer’s disease. The participants walked along a route that began on the grounds of The College at Brockport’s Alumni House and continued around the campus and into downtown. The College’s Alumni Association served as the Walk’s site sponsor.
The top fundraising team was Team Barbara Jeanne, (pictured) which raised more than $5,600. The Brockport Walk is one sponsored by the Rochester and Finger Lakes Chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association to be held in the region in the coming weeks. The Chapter’s fundraising goal for these Walks is $265,000: October 6 in Elmira; October 13 in Rochester’s Corn Hill Neighborhood; and October 20 in Geneseo.
