Support the Memory Hub, including projects like the new gazebo in Maude’s Garden!

The UW Medicine Memory & Brain Wellness Center (MBWC) has pioneered a nationally unique model which helps people with memory loss and their families thrive, while accelerating collaboration and innovation in the field: the Memory Hub. Gifts to the Memory Hub fund TODAY will be matched AND will directly support the Memory Hub, including projects like the new gazebo in Maude’s Garden. You can learn more about this work on this page.

Every gift makes a difference and will help us to unlock additional funds to go towards the Memory Hub. The first 25 gifts will unlock $5,000 in a matching challenge grant, then if we complete our goal of 50 total gifts, it will unlock an additional $20,000 in support. That’s $25,000 for reaching our goal of 50 donors. I hope you will join us in making a gift to the Memory Hub. Give!

Support the development of new blood tests to detect Alzheimer’s disease in its earliest stages

The UW Alzheimer's Disease Research Center is developing cutting-edge blood tests to detect Alzheimer’s disease in its earliest stages. These tests help make diagnosis easier and more accessible to people, detect disease before symptoms, and help define appropriate treatment. Every donation will enable us to screen another research volunteer and support outreach teams to incorporate underrepresented groups in our research studies in South King and North Pierce County. You can learn more about this work on this page. The first 25 gifts to the Alzheimer's Disease Research Center will unlock an additional $5,000 thanks a generous donor. Give!
