On a recent Saturday in Fall, At Home Senior Care, a private duty home care agency with offices in Bennington, Manchester, Middlebury, and Rutland, Vermont participated in the 2023 Alzheimer’s Association’s Walk to End Alzheimer’s. September 23 was a great day for a Walk in Rutland!

The Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s is the world’s largest event to raise awareness and funds for the care, support, and research efforts of the Alzheimer’s Association. Since 1989, the Association has mobilized millions of Americans to participate in the Walk.
Many of the seniors At Home Senior Care serves are living with Alzheimer’s disease or other dementias. Participation in the event is a meaningful way to honor these clients, and the families and caregivers who support them.
At Home Senior Care’s Director of Operations Mark Sarno has volunteered with the Rutland Walk Committee for three years. This year, as the Executive Chair of the Rutland Walk Committee, he is responsible for recruiting teams for the walk, and raising awareness and funds in the community, critical to advancing the committee’s mission. At Home Senior Care was the 5th largest contributing team this year, with a total of $950 dollars raised.
At Home Senior Care wishes to thank its team of walkers and donors for helping to advance the Alzheimer’s Association’s vision of a world without Alzheimer’s disease. For more information on memory care, visit their website at www.athomeseniors.net.
