[The Team at Merrill Gardens](https://blog.merrillgardens.com/author/the-team-at-merrill-gardens) 12/04/2019 [0 Comments](https://blog.merrillgardens.com/walking-to-end-alzheimer-s#postComment) 1 Minutes We are so proud of our team members and residents who give their time each year to raise money for the Alzheimer's Association. This is the largest event in the world to raise awareness for Alzheimer’s care, support, and research asnd thousands participate. We love to see our teams and residents out making a difference in their communities. In addition to participating in The Walk events, our communities held fabulous fundraisers including a classic car show, spaghetti dinner and a Hawaiian luau.

Their team also hosted a tasty breakfast burrito fundraiser, with over 450 participants and volunteers. ![](https://blog.merrillgardens.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/IMG-8510_c5acvd.jpg) Thank you to all our residents and team members that participated in this great cause! --- #### Tag: #### Share: - [Follow us on Facebook](http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https://blog.merrillgardens.com/walking-to-end-alzheimer-s) - [Follow us on Twitter](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?url=https://blog.merrillgardens.com/walking-to-end-alzheimer-s&text=Walking%20to%20End%20Alzheimer's!) - [Follow us on Linkedin](http://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https://blog.merrillgardens.com/walking-to-end-alzheimer-s) - [Follow us on Pinterest](http://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https://blog.merrillgardens.com/walking-to-end-alzheimer-s&text=Walking%20to%20End%20Alzheimers!description=We%20are%20so%20proud%20of%20our%20team%20members%20and%20residents%20who%20give%20their%20time%20each%20year%20to%20raise%20money%20for%20the%20Alzheimer's%20Association.%20This%20is%20the%20largest%20event%20in[...]&media=https://5001117.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/5001117/Imported_Blog_Media/3_xfxhrj.jpg) --- ##### [More posts](https://blog.merrillgardens.com/) ### Leave a Comment Below --- ![W3C](https://blog.merrillgardens.com/hs-fs/hubfs/MerrillGardens_January2024/images/wcag2.1AA-blue-v_jaqpmq.png?width=368&name=wcag2.1AA-blue-v_jaqpmq.png "W3C") ###### Merrill Gardens [1938 Fairview Avenue E #300 Seattle, WA 98102](https://www.merrillgardens.com/communities) [206-676-5300](tel:206-676-5300) - [Privacy Policy](https://www.merrillgardens.com/privacy-policy) - [Accessibility and Non Discrimination](https://www.merrillgardens.com/accessibility-statement) - [Do Not Share My Personal Information/Limit the Use or Disclosure of My Sensitive Personal Information](https://conversionlogix.com/ccpa-opt-out/) Copyright © 2026 Merrill Gardens [Equal Opportunity Housing](https://www.hud.gov/program_offices/fair_housing_equal_opp)
