Bringing Light to Alzheimer's
The Issue
Let’s face it—bringing up Alzheimer’s doesn’t usually make you the life of the party. Most people don’t want to think about dementia until they have to.
But here’s the deal: if we can get people talking about Alz early on, and change their behavior, we can actually prevent up to 40% of cases! And when we say change, we’re not talking Ironman training or subsisting on raw wheatgrass. We’re talking healthy lifestyle adjustments like better sleep, breathing exercises and delicious new recipes. And we’re right here to help. Already caring for someone with dementia? We’re here for you too. That’s why we’ve packed this site with support, because while there isn’t a cure (yet!), there is care.
Help For Caregivers
HFC doesn’t technically stand for Help for Caregivers, but maybe it should. Family caregivers of people with dementia endure huge emotional, financial, and physical difficulties. So many of them put their careers, personal lives, finances - everything - on hold to take care of loved ones. HFC’s goal is to transform the caregiving experience for young people and families impacted by Alzheimer’s disease, increasing their well-being and helping them thrive.

DIY Fundraiser
Fundraisers don’t have to be lame $500 a ticket evenings where you rent a tux and miss the Lakers game. We’d love to find new, innovative ways to help you help us help others. Whether it’s running a marathon, donating a wedding or bar mitzvah gift, or hosting a comedy night, HFC puts the FUN in fundraisers.
