Annual Walk to End Alzheimer’s
Saturday September 11th Alternative Senior Care took part in the Annual Walk to End Alzheimer’s. Our team participated with over 176 participants from the Lakes Area with 23 Teams in attendance. The event began at the Alexandria YMCA. All funds raised through Walk to End Alzheimer’s further the care, support and research efforts of the Alzheimer’s Association. We are so thankful to those who attended and those who continue to give to this important cause. Each registered participant received a Promise Garden flower to choose the color that best represents their connection to the disease.
Blue represents someone living with Alzheimer’s or another dementia.
Purple is for those who have lost a someone to the disease.
Yellow represents someone who is currently supporting or caring for a person living with Alzheimer’s.
Orange is for those who support the cause and the Association’s vision of a world without Alzheimer’s and all other dementia.

Lainie recalled her favorite subject in school was Home Economics,
“I always loved cooking, cleaning, organizing the home, and caregiving; all the things we do best at Alternative Senior Care!”
"I’ve learned a lot from my experiences for the past 30 years, caregiving for seniors, children and family members. Being a part of Alternative Senior Care is a privilege for me because I feel every day is an opportunity to find ways to bless others, especially in my own community. Overseeing our day-to-day operations at Alternative Senior Care, allows me to make sure our values and mission statement is implemented in all that we do to make each client feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own home. “
