Take A Coffee Break and Help The Alzheimer Society!



 Alzheimer Society of Windsor & Essex County
Celebrates 20 Years of Coffee Break®

Have You Had Your Coffee Break Today?
 
The Alzheimer Society of Windsor & Essex County announces its 20th Annual Alzheimer Coffee Break® fundraiser. The campaign began Tuesday, September 1, 2015 and continues until Monday, November 30, 2015.
The Coffee Break® is a simple and fun way to raise much-needed funds for the Alzheimer Society of Windsor & Essex County. This year’s goal is $30,000 from 100 host sites.
Anyone can host a Coffee Break – friends, families, businesses, and faith community groups. By exchanging a cup of coffee for a donation, you are making your coffee count!
Local proceeds remain in Windsor and Essex County and support our clients, their partners in care, and their families. Over 6,100 individuals in Windsor-Essex have been diagnosed with dementia.
“The demand for services is steadily climbing,” says Sally Bennett Olczak, CEO of the Alzheimer Society of Windsor and Essex County. “We still don’t have a cure for the disease, but day programs, caregiver support groups, respite and other services help families to live well and independently longer. Our programs are increasingly vital. We need funds to keep them active.”
Please consider putting a pot of coffee on, (supplied by the society), and invite friends, family, and coworkers to your Coffee Break®. Ask them to donate any amount of money in exchange for a cup of coffee. For those that donate over $20 they will receive a commemorative Coffee Break T-shirt as a special 20th Anniversary thank-you!
Additionally, they are providing Coffee Cup cutouts to local businesses where customers purchase and proudly display their names in support of the Society.
Special thanks to our local sponsors; Colonial Coffee, Biz X Magazine and the National Campaign Sponsors Bulk Barn, and Mother Parker.
