A gift to Alzheimer's senior patient (7/31/22~8/21/22)
In collaboration with a youth organization Letters for Rose Irvine, Exploring the Brain sent small gifts to senior patients diagnosed with Alzheimer's. Letters for Rose Irvine was in charge of collecting letters while our nonprofit collected and assembled the memory kits, and both letters and kits were sent to nearby Alzheimer's care centers (Newport Beach Memory Care and Forever Young Memory Care.) Through this event, we hope to raise awareness of Alzheimer's disease as well as to support the patients during one of the most difficult moments of their lives.
