Organiser's description

This year's 5k will honor all Amblebrook residents and loved ones that currently have dementia or who have passed away from it. All proceeds from the 5K/Fun Walk will be donated to Adams County Office for Aging, ACOFA, to fund Alzheimers and Dementia initiatives and programs. One of their current goals is to provide 50 compassion therapy pets for those county residents in need. Thank you for sharing our vision to make dementia survivable, regardless of diagnosis. Your support is invaluable in advancing research, providing essential care, and offering hope to those affected by this challenging condition. Together, we are making a meaningful difference in the lives of many.
