Today we celebrate #GrandparentsDay. We are thankful for the Nanas, Papas, Grammies and Pops who give us our stories, our traditions and our sense of where we come from. We will continue fighting to #ENDALZ until no grandparents are lost to Alzheimer's or another dementia.

Today's "Why I Walk" story comes to us from Philadelphia #Walk2EndAlz participant, Larry D. Smith, Jr.
"My motivation to participate in the Walk to End Alzheimer's is my Grandmother who passed from Alzheimer’s and my Aunt who is living with dementia," shares Larry. "This is a long-standing walk -- and organization -- and I plan to stay involved because it’s very important to me."
We are grateful to people like Larry who dedicate their time and passion to helping us live in a world without Alzheimer's and all other dementia. Want to join Larry and make your impact? Register for a Walk today and #ENDALZ with us: alz.org/walk.
