Walk to End Alzheimer's in Park City | Park City News

This Saturday, September 19th, join thousands in Park City for the Summit/Wasatch County Walk to End Alzheimer’s — a powerful community effort raising funds to fight this devastating disease. With walkers gathering at 9 AM and ceremonies starting at 10 AM at Newpark Amphitheater, this event is one of seven across Utah aiming to hit a local goal of $220K and a statewide target of over $624K. Alzheimer’s affects more than 38,000 Utahns and is the only top disease without a cure — every dollar raised fuels research and free support services for patients and caregivers. Since 2000, deaths from Alzheimer’s have surged 134% while heart disease has declined — and women bear the brunt, making up two-thirds of both diagnoses and caregivers. Over 118,000 unpaid caregivers in Utah give millions of hours annually. Whether you walk, volunteer, or donate, your involvement matters — visit the Utah Walks to End Alzheimer’s website to get involved and help build a future without Alzheimer’s.
