Celebrate the 19th RIDE to End Alzheimer's!
Join us this July to raise critical funds and awareness for Alzheimer's Disease Research!
The 19th Annual Ride to End Alzheimer's will take place on Saturday, July 18, 2015 in Devens, MA. Route: There are four distance options, including a Family Ride, 30, 62, or 100 mile options through the scenic landscapes of central Massachusetts and southern New Hampshire.
This year, we are excited to offer new finish line entertainment, post ride BBQ and other exciting additions to the RIDE! Started by the Noonan family 18 years ago, our RIDE (formerly Memory Ride) has raised more than $3,000,000 dollars for Alzheimer's Disease Research! Each year 90% of the funds raised are given to research restricted grants. The remaining 10% of proceeds fund programs and services in Massachusetts and New Hampshire. Join the RIDE and become part of something great as we MOVE to #EndAlz!
The Noonan family, whose story was featured in PBS’s Emmy-winning series, “The Forgetting,” struggled with multiple cases of early-onset Alzheimer’s disease within their immediate family over several generations. Hoping to save other families from experiencing this devastation, the Noonan’s founded the original Memory Ride for Alzheimer's Research.
