Show your support for the cause at work.
There are plenty of things you can do in the workplace to raise
awareness of Alzheimer's disease. Here are some fun and easy ideas
to get you started!
Go casual for a cause
For a small donation (usually $5), employees choose a day to dress casually - and display their commitment to the Alzheimer's Association by wearing our symbol.
A morning coffee break (ask your local coffee shop to donate the coffee).
How:
Offer a cup for a small donation.
Ask employees to "get grounded" in the facts about Alzheimer's on this site.

Eldercare
Calculator
Companies who want to quantify the costs of eldercare expenses
incurred by them and their employees can check out this Eldercare
Calculator. Enter the size of your business, an average
hourly wage for employees, and the number of employees who
are working caregivers, and you can get an estimate on the
lost productivity. Understanding these costs can be helpful
as you design benefits programs that enable employees to meet
their caregiving demands and increase productivity.
