The Great Falls Public Library, in preparation for the Walk to End Alzheimer’s at Gibson Park, has put up its monthly Story Walk display featuring two books that help inform youngsters about memory loss and Alzheimer’s “Never Forget Eleanor” and “How to Babysit a Grandpa.”
The Walk to End Alzheimer’s, which the Library will be participating in, helps raise money for the Alzheimer’s Association. It begins at 11 am on Saturday, Sept. 14th. This year, the Association’s goal, according to their website, is to raise $32,250. All funds raised through Walk to End Alzheimer’s further the care, support and research efforts of the Alzheimer’s Association. The Alzheimer’s Association is a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization. All donations are tax-deductible as allowed by law. Anyone who would like to register for the walk can do so at https://act.alz.org.
The GFPL Story Walk display also was put up to honor Grandparents’ Day on Sept. 8, which was created in 1978 by then-President Jimmy Carter, who signed a proclamation creating the National Grandparents’ Day.
