80% of race proceeds are donated
to Cure Alzheimer’s Fund
Every dollar they spend goes to research, and gets us one step closer to finding a cure.
Cure Alzheimer’s Fund (CureAlz) is a non-profit organization dedicated to funding research with the highest probability of preventing, slowing, or reversing Alzheimer’s Disease.
CureAlz was founded in 2004 by three families frustrated by the slow pace of research. Leveraging their experience in venture capital and corporate start-ups, their founders (Henry McCance, Phyllis Rappaport and Jacqui and Jeff Morby) came together to build a new Alzheimer’s research fund designed to dramatically accelerate research, make bold bets and focus exclusively on finding a cure.
CureAlz supports some of the best scientific minds in the field of Alzheimer’s research, and does so without any financial gain for its founders or donors. 100% of funds raised by Cure Alzheimer’s Fund go directly to research; and the Board of Directors covers all overhead expenses.
