Senior Living Residences’ Compass Memory Support is committed to supporting research towards enhanced understanding about Alzheimer’s disease today and the eventual treatment and cure for the disease.
Committed to being a part of research programs and basing programming on the latest findings about Alzheimer’s disease, SLR and its communities are also a part of supporting various research projects through raising funds.
Last month, all of the Compass Memory Support communities raised funds for the Walk to End Alzheimer’s disease for the Alzheimer’s Association, the largest private supporter of Alzheimer’s research in the country. This month we look back over recent fundraising activities to support our academic affiliate, the Boston University School of Medicine’s Alzheimer’s Disease Center (BUADC), whose mission includes advancement in the knowledge of care and treatment for those living with Alzheimer’s disease.
In the last few months, many Compass Memory Support communities have held fundraisers to support the work of researchers at the BUADC. Communities held events that included celebration and cheer, including a Luau event, Casino events and a Chowderfest . All told, Senior Living Residences has raised thousands of dollars to support local researchers, while informing the greater community about the importance of supporting research.
