Memories Under the Stars
An evening brought to you by the Young Professionals Alzheimer's Association of Colorado.
An estimated 64,000 Coloradans have Alzheimer's disease, and in just 15 years that number is expected to grow by 124 percent to 140,000. In response to the impact Alzheimer's disease is having on all generations, Denver's next generation of business, civil and community leaders have come together to create the Young Professionals Alzheimer's Association of Colorado (YPAAC).
Please join us in our kickoff event, Memories Under the Stars, on Thursday, August 31. Proceeds of the event will go to YPAAC's fundraising effort and operations.
