SAG, AFTRA and AEA Walk to End Alzheimer’s on November 5

 On Saturday, November 5, 2011, members of AFTRA, SAG, and AEA joined with thousands of others on the National Mall for the Walk to End Alzheimer’s. The walk, just one of many around the country, was organized by the Alzheimer’s Association to raise awareness, money, and support for the sixth-leading cause of death in the United States.

The Tri-Union national team, “We Take Care of Our Own—Actors’ Unite to End Alzheimer’s” was started by actor Nancy Daly, whose mother was diagnosed with the disease in 2009. This year, the national team raised over $22,000 and had a 100 member team.

We are thrilled to have participated in such an important and inspiring event and look forward to doing it again in the future.
