Mike and Maria want to raise money for Alzheimers Otago so the Society can continue supporting people with dementia and their care partners.

Otago

Hey Team,

This time next month Maria and I will be attempting to get our rigs around the respective half and full marathons as we take part in the annual Queenstown International Marathon to raise some funds for the Alzheimer’s Otago group. If you’re like us and know what it’s like to have a family member affected by this debilitating disease, you’ll have a great appreciation for groups like Alzheimer’s Otago. They provide a service for both the individual affected through health care, education and various other services, as well as a companion for family and friends throughout this increasingly difficult journey.

To show how much it means to us we’ll match your donations, dollar for dollar, so donations of all shapes and sizes are greatly appreciated!

Cheers,

Mike and Maria
