On Saturday, October 9th,The Home Helpers and Direct Link Team from the Lehigh Valley and Lansdale offices participated in the 2010 Alzheimer's Association Memory Walk®, the nation's largest event to raise awareness and funds to fight Alzheimer’s. The walk was held at Kutztown University. Together, the team raised $200 and walked to help end the epidemic and show their support for the more than 5 million individuals currently living with the disease.
