Alzheimer’s Women’s Association for Resources and Education (A.W.A.R.E.) supports families by providing resources and emotional support, which people like Judy Diamond appreciate to this day.
Her father was suffering from Alzheimer’s, and she was directed to A.W.A.R.E. when she just didn’t know what to do. She remarked that not only does A.W.A.R.E. fundraise, but it is also a “tremendous group of ladies that really care about the families dealing with Alzheimer’s.”
Diamond was so moved by the support that not only is she an A.W.A.R.E. past president, but she also sits on the board of the greater Dallas chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association and founded the Lee Jarmon Golf Tournament in honor of her father, which has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for the association since its inception.
To raise money for Alzheimer’s research, A.W.A.R.E. will hold its 25th Anniversary Evening Celebration Honoring Our Founders on April 17, 2014. Since its inception in 1987, A.W.A.R.E. has raised more than $10 million.
