LEWY BODY DEMENTIA ASSOCIATION INC

LBD Awareness Movement
In memory of: my Mother

LBD Awareness Movement

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!

My name is Victoria Ruff and I'm a volunteer with the Lewy Body Dementia Association. One of my tasks as volunteer is to spread awareness of the 2nd leading cause of degenerative dementia – Lewy Body Dementia (LBD). LBD is often under-diagnosed or misdiagnosed, since it shows similar symptoms to both Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease.

Once again I'll be joining others who will be participating in the Allan D. Morrison 5K Run/Walk in Melrose, MA on Saturday, October 15, 2011.

If you'd like to join my efforts you may do so by walking with me or supporting Lewy Body Dementia Association with a donation. Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support my fundraising efforts. If you don't want to donate online you can write a check out to the "Lewy Body Dementia Association" and contact me via email: Octoryrose @yahoo.com {no spaces}

For more information about the Lewy Body Dementia Association, please call 404-935-6444, email lbda@lbda.org or visit http://www.lbda.org

Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!
