Outreach Connection - Season 3 Episode 106 Teresa Taylor and Janet Veach - Alzheimer’s Association
Janet Veach: Director of Public Relations and Teresa Taylor from the Quincy Illinois area Alzheimer’s Association sit down with Dr. Debra Peppers on the Outreach Connection Program.
The Alzheimer's Association's annual Memory Walk
The winning nursing home receives a traveling trophy to keep for a year. After the episode aired it was learned that The defending champ is Sunset Home, which raised $2,218 in 2009. That figure was part of the $30,753 raised toward programs and materials the Quincy Area Branch provides for the five-county area it covers. Caregivers and family members of those with Alzheimer's in Adams, Hancock, Brown, Pike and Schuyler counties are the chief beneficiaries.
Janet Veach, who is the manager of the Quincy Area Branch and director of public relations director for the Central Illinois Chapter of the Alzheimer's Association, says staff members at the nursing homes come up with all sorts of often-unique fundraising schemes.
Theresa Taylor, unit coordinator of the Alzheimer's residence at Sunset Home, says being part of the defending nursing home champion is nice, but the reason for the contest should not be forgotten.
"We're delighted to be the defending champion, but raising money for the Memory Walk is the most important thing," Taylor said. "It's nice to see how this has grown over the years and that more nursing homes are taking part.
Taylor said part of Sunset's fundraising efforts this year included bed races along with raffling a scooter donated by Traeder's TNT.
