(ORLANDO, Florida) Employees from Family First Firm are raising donations for the Alzheimer’s Association. They will participate as the Always By Your Side Team in the Greater Orlando 2022 Walk To End Alzheimer’s, which will take place on Saturday, October 8th, at Walt Disney Amphitheater at Lake Eola in Downtown Orlando.
The outdoor event at 195 Rosalind Avenue in Lake Eola Park will begin with a registration period at 7:30 AM, and a ceremony at 9:00 AM before thousands of participants walk in support of people who live with Alzheimer’s. Family First Firm will also be operating the Pet Palace at the site of the event to ensure all furry friends stay hydrated and enjoy snacks for the big event.
Community members are strongly encouraged to support the Walk to End Alzheimer’s by registering to walk in the event and donating through the Always By Your Side team page to help them reach their $5,000 donation goal. This effort will contribute toward the event’s goal of $500,000 for all of Greater Orlando. Every dollar raised benefits the care, support, and research efforts of the Alzheimer’s Association in the community and beyond.
“Many of our clients consist of elderly people and their families, and Alzheimer’s affects a substantial percentage of that demographic. The Walk To End Alzheimer’s in Downtown Orlando’s Lake Eola Park is an excellent opportunity to step up and make a difference for Greater Orlando’s families dealing with Alzheimer’s both now and in the future, as we work towards eventually beating this debilitating disease,” said Family First Firm Business Development Manager and Always By Your Side Team Captain, Yelitza Rivera.
Family First Firm Founder & CEO, Geoff Hoatson, along with the growing Always By Your Side team roster will be active participants at the Lake Eola Park event. Community members are encouraged to share the donation link and help to spread the word among friends, family, and colleagues before joining the team in person at what promises to be a fun, positive, and supportive Saturday morning event at the Walt Disney Amphitheater at Lake Eola Park in Downtown Orlando.
