Tender Rose at the Petaluma Walk to End Alzheimer's

When we sponsored the Walk to End Alzheimer’s in San Francisco last month, we met some truly incredible and inspiring people. So, we decided to do it again.

This past Saturday, Tender Rose sponsored The Alzheimer’s Association’s Walk to End Alzheimer’s in Petaluma. Just as before, we were moved by the touching stories, motivational words and overall supportive vibe we experienced throughout the event. It is both refreshing and encouraging to see so many people dedicated to funding research to end this disease.

When we asked our staffing manager, Elizabeth Hendricks, about her observations, this is what she had to say:

“Participating in the Walk to End Alzheimer's in Petaluma was an uplifting experience. The sponsors, which were made up of local home care agencies and senior living facilities, were all very friendly and inviting. The Alzheimer's Association gave a very beautiful, moving speech. The supportive environment made the event feel very intimate despite catering to over 1,000 attendees.”

Check out the photos from the walk, and please visit alz.org to donate and learn more.
