Can I volunteer?

Because we have small offices, it is impossible to accommodate all the enthusiastic people who want to give their time to help find a cure for Alzheimer’s. However, we do offer some volunteer and internship opportunities for people in our Boston area office. If interested, please e-mail info@curealz.org.

Where can I read FAQs about Alzheimer’s disease?

At Cure Alzheimer’s Fund, we want to keep our focus on funding promising research, but there are a number of good sources about Alzheimer’s disease and care giving on the Web. Read the National Institutes of Health’s FAQs on Alzheimer’s disease.
