The Alzheimer Society Peel raises funds to provide "Help for Today and Hope for Tomorrow."
We provide "help for today" in the programs and services we offer and "hope for tomorrow" with our on-going commitment to fund research about Alzheimer's disease and related dementias.
The Alzheimer Society Peel was a founding member of the Centre for Research in Neurodegenerative Diseases at the University of Toronto. We have raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for the Centre.
Funding for research and our community services is provided through general and memorial donations, corporate sponsorships, service clubs, community groups, and special bequests.

Bingo every Tuesday at the International Centre, the Golf Marathon in June, our nationwide Coffee BreakTM in September, our "Forget-Me-Not" Bear Campaign in the fall, our nationwide Walk for Memories Walkathon in January.
