Maplewood Senior Living Supports Those Living with Alzheimer’s

The Alzheimer's Association Connecticut Chapter is pleased to announce that Maplewood Senior Living is making a $7,216.00 contribution to support programs and services to the more than 70,000 people in Connecticut living with Alzheimer's disease on Wednesday December 18th at 12:00 p.m. at Maplewood at Danbury 22 Hospital Avenue in Danbury, CT

This donation is the result of the annual recent Festival of Trees event where local businesses, organizations and individuals donate decorated holiday trees that are part of a silent auction event.

"Maplewood Senior Living is proud to support the Alzheimer's Association in the fight against Alzheimer's. Community support and grassroots fundraising provide the much needed help for families and those living with the disease with services they need and deserve," says Gregory D. Smith, Chairman and CEO of Maplewood Senior Living. "I am proud of the successful fundraising events Maplewood at Danbury, along with our other Maplewood communities."

The funds raised at this event benefit the Alzheimer's Association Walk to End Alzheimer's, the largest annual fundraising event which helps advance Alzheimer's care, support and research initiatives.

"This generous donation will allow our organization to grow our programs and services to those living with Alzheimer's disease, such as our early-stage engagement groups and community education programs" says Eleonora Tornatore-Mikesh, Executive Director for the Alzheimer's Association Connecticut Chapter.
