Despite the panic-driven changes to the event, the Walk to End Alzheimer’s raised in excess of $67 million last year in more than 600 participating communities across the country. The Santa Barbara Walk raised $168,986 of that total. Money raised by walk funds Alzheimer’s care, support and research programs.
The 2021 Santa Barbara Walk planning committee is led by local volunteers who are passionate about connecting with their community to support the cause.
“I serve on the committee because I see the increasing number of families that are impacted by Alzheimer’s disease, and I want to be part of the solution to raise funds to find a cure and support caregivers and families,” said Pam Bigelow, assisted living sales specialist of Covenant Living at the Samarkand.
