Walk to End Alzheimer's Coming Soon

Park Hills, Mo. (KFMO) - The Walk to End Alzheimer's fundraiser event will be held this month.

Local Walk Manager, Maddie Erwin, says we are coming close to a cure and if you join the Walk, you can help researchers in their quest. Erwin says securing funding to find a cure is important because 1 in 3 people are effected by alzheimer's.

According to Erwin, the Parkland's Walk to End Alzheimer's takes place September 28  at Mineral Area College.

You can get more information about the walk and sign up to be a part of the event at
