Alzheimer’s San Diego’s 2024 Events
This year’s Visionary event was at a brand new location, taking place the University Club in downtown San Diego! We were lucky to host so many familiar faces and to honor our longtime friend and a pioneer in frontotemporal dementia (FTD) advocacy, Wanda Smith. Read the full recap & view photos >
At our annual research forum, seven of Southern California’s most respected dementia researchers gathered virtually to answer your questions about the progress happening behind the scenes of ongoing clinical trials and other research topics making headlines. Among subjects discussed were updates on Lecanemab and Donanemab, along with the progression of artificial intelligence and more. More insights & the full video >
The 2024 Rides4ALZ took place this past summer with over 330 participants as they rode through the county and met up for the after party at AleSmith Brewing. More than $170,000 was raised and San Diego Harley-Davidson Owners (HOG) was our top fundraising team once again, reaching $6,680! View the recap & photos >
As the last event of the year, our Walk4ALZ in Balboa Park is always a wonderful culmination of the community and was once again a success, with over $430,000 raised for San Diegans impacted by memory loss. The Men Remember also repeated as our top team and led the charge with over $150,000 raised! Read about the event & view photos >
