The Fight Against Alzheimer's Disease Needs Us

The mind may not remember, but the heart will never forget.

  • Alzheimer’s is the only disease among the top 10 causes of death in America that cannot be prevented, cured or even slowed.  
  • Alzheimer’s disease is the sixth-leading cause of death in the United States.
  • More than 16 million caregivers of people living with Alzheimer's disease or other dementias provided an estimated 18.5 billion hours of unpaid care, a contribution to the nation valued at more than $244 billion.
  •  Alzheimer's disease costs the United States over $305 billion annually. This number is projected to rise to more than $1.1 trillion in 2050. 
  • Since 2000, deaths from Alzheimer's has increased over 146 percent.
  • Every 65 seconds someone in the United States develops Alzheimer’s Disease.  
  • More than 5 million Americans are living with the disease.
  • One in three seniors dies with Alzheimer’s or another dementia.
  • Almost two-thirds of Americans with Alzheimer’s disease are women.
  • Nearly 13 million American women are either living with Alzheimer's disease or caring for someone who has it.
  • Alzheimer's is not just a disease of old age. Younger-onset Alzheimer's affects people younger than age 65. Up to 5 percent of the more than 5 million Americans with Alzheimer’s have younger onset.
