Bring people together, increase understanding of dementia, connect families with resources, and help strengthen local support across Southwest Florida.
Community events can create a visible, welcoming place for families affected by dementia. They also give neighbors, healthcare professionals, employers, faith communities, and local businesses an opportunity to learn, volunteer, sponsor programs, and support caregivers.
An effective event is more than a fundraiser. It should help people leave knowing where to get help and what they can do next.
Businesses and organizations may be able to support an event through sponsorship, space, food and refreshments, printing, equipment, volunteers, transportation assistance, or promotion. Partnership opportunities should be matched to the program and clearly documented.
Confirmed Alliance events should appear on the site with the date, time, location, registration instructions, accessibility information, and a clear description of who the event is for. Unconfirmed programs should remain marked “To be announced” rather than showing placeholder dates.
Tell us what kind of event or partnership you have in mind. The Alliance can review the idea and determine whether it fits current programs, community needs, and available resources.
When the Alliance participates in an event operated by another organization, the event organizer and any external registration requirements should be clearly identified before visitors are directed off-site.
