They money will be donated during the walk to end Alzheimer’s on October 21st

"One in three seniors is affected by Alzheimer’s or a form of dementia. It definitely affects a lot of our residents on campus, we have several specialized memory care facilities. We're walking because of them and we also want to show support for their caregivers,” Erin Kelly, Director of Marketing for the Baptist Retirement Community said.
