CaringKind Hosts Annual Benefit to Combat Alzheimer's Disease
Join Us for CaringKind's 8th Annual Caring to Remember Benefit
CaringKind, New York City’s leading authority on Alzheimer’s and related dementia caregiving, is preparing for its 8th Annual Caring to Remember Cocktail benefit. This much-anticipated event is expected to attract over 500 prominent leaders from the real estate and construction industries. Everyone will come together to support the essential fight against Alzheimer’s disease while raising awareness and crucial funds for care and research.
Honoring Contributions to Alzheimer’s Awareness
This remarkable event first started in 2015, thanks to the passionate efforts of Heidi Lohrfink Nigg, Geraldine Szabo from GKS Industries, and Andrea Tallent Spivak, who is CaringKind’s VP of Development & Strategic Alliances. Their goal was clear: unite the heroes of New York's commercial real estate sector in the battle against Alzheimer's and related dementias. Over the years, this initiative has successfully raised more than $1.5 million, supporting impactful research, caregiving services, and advocacy for those affected by the disease.
Funding Goals for This Year
This year, CaringKind aims to raise $550,000 during the benefit. The funds raised will go towards various initiatives, including a collaboration with the Blue Zones Project. This partnership focuses on enhancing community health and reducing Alzheimer’s risks, especially in areas where the disease is most prevalent.
Acknowledging Leaders Making a Difference
This year’s event will celebrate three outstanding leaders who’ve made a significant impact on the lives of those affected by Alzheimer’s:
- Frances Graham, Senior Managing Director at Newmark
- Linda Foggie, a Global Real Estate Executive with Vista Equity Partners
- Joseph Szabo, SVP of Property Management at Paramount Group, will be honored with the 2024 Caring to Remember Jerry Silecchia Legacy Award
Their unwavering commitment to advancing Alzheimer’s care and research highlights their passion and dedication.
Illuminating the City Purple for Awareness
In celebration of World Alzheimer’s Day, CaringKind is thrilled to partner with iconic NYC landmarks to light them up in purple. This vibrant display on the evening of the event symbolizes solidarity with those facing Alzheimer’s challenges. Renowned sites such as One World Trade Center and the Oculus will be participating, creating a striking visual impact to raise awareness for this vital cause.
Supporting Alzheimer’s Research and Advocacy
The proceeds from the event will not only strengthen CaringKind’s local initiatives but will also help the Alzheimer’s Association fund critical research efforts and support UsAgainstAlzheimer's in their fight for Medicare reform, enhancing access to care for individuals impacted by the disease.
