Today is World Alzheimer's Day

Beebe - Ami's mom

World Alzheimer’s Day is Wednesday, September 21st.

For those of you who FaceBook,

please change your FaceBook profile picture temporarily

to the photograph of a person who has/had Alzheimer’s

that you wish to honor and remember on September 21st and always.

Please include this statement in your status update:

I support the Alzheimer’s Art Quilt Initiative
at http://www.alzquilts.org/

If you  make a $5 donation to the Alzheimer’s Art Quilt Initiative

before midnight on Wednesday,

post the invoice number generated by your donation

to the AAQI FaceBook page at:

http://www.facebook.com/AAQI.News

AAQI will capture the image of your loved one

from your profile picture and add it to the AAQI

2011 Virtual Wall of Remembrance

where it will remain for one year.

(Names will not accompany photographs.)

Lura - my mother

If, like me, you are not on FaceBook,

or you wish to make multiple donations to honor more than one person,

email one photograph of each of your loved ones

and the invoice number generated by your donation

($5 for each photo)

to Diane at diane456@gmail.com.

Pictures may be cropped and sized to fit the wall.

As it is somewhat time consuming to snag

and post the profile pictures,

please do not change your's until

you see it appear on the

 AAQI Update Blog's Wall of Remembrance page.

It may take several days, so please be patient.

What a simple, wonderful idea . . .

Here's to working together

to honor our loved ones and fund additional research grants!

Thank you!!
