Proudly Canadian
Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia have a significant impact on people and society. In 2020, 8.4% of Canadians over 65 had some form of dementia. By 2050, this number is expected to rise to more than 13%. The money raised through the Walk goes to support those living with dementia and their caregivers.
When you walk for Alzheimer’s, you join thousands of Canadians who are sending a message of hope to people living with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia.
The need is greater than ever. Join the IG Wealth Management Walk for Alzheimer’s to help Canadians living with dementia and their caregivers. Together, we’ve raised over $47 million in 9 years.
I honour my Dad who had Alzheimer’s and loved to walk. Now I walk for him every year to support the Alzheimer’s Society.
