As we begin our thirty-sixth year, we want to thank our supporters for their contributions to AWARE North Texas. AWARE continues to demonstrate compassion, generosity, tenacity, discernment and great heart for our local Alzheimer's and dementia community.
After a most successful AWARE Affair this past spring, more than $400,000 was awarded to local providers, researchers and innovators fighting for our loved ones and a cure. Your generosity makes a significant impact, and we are grateful for your loyal support.
