This Summer, Illinois will unite once again to take steps toward a world without Alzheimer’s. The 2025 Walk to End Alzheimer’s is set to take place across 23 communities statewide, bringing together families, caregivers, and supporters for a day of remembrance, hope, and action.
A Day of Meaning and Movement
Each walk kicks off with the poignant Promise Garden ceremony, where participants carry flowers of different colors—blue for those living with Alzheimer’s, yellow for caregivers, purple for those we've lost, and orange for supporters. This visual tribute symbolizes our collective commitment to ending the disease.
Get Involved
Whether you're walking in honor of a loved one, supporting a team, or volunteering your time, your participation makes a difference. Funds raised support the Alzheimer's Association's mission to provide 24/7 care and support, advance research, and advocate for policies that benefit those affected by Alzheimer's.
Why We Walk
In Illinois alone, over 266,500 people are living with Alzheimer's, and more than 314,000 caregivers provide support. By participating in the Walk to End Alzheimer's, you're joining a community dedicated to raising awareness, supporting families, and funding research to find a cure.

Together, we can make a difference. Join us for the 2025 Walk to End Alzheimer’s and take a step toward a brighter future for all those affected by this disease.
