NEWS!

We are very privileged to have a member of the Guelph community, Christina Pilgrim, participating in this year's Ascent for Alzheimer's, a fundraising event organized by the Alzheimer Society of B.C. Christina has decided to raise money for the Alzheimer Society of Guelph-Wellington by climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, in Tanzania. 

At 19,340 feet, Mount Kilimanjaro is the highest mountain on the continent of Africa. More than 130 Canadians have literally climbed mountains in the fight against Alzheimer’s, reaching for the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro as part of Ascent for Alzheimer’s.

Christina is organizing a Variety Show and Silent Auction on May 16 at the Red Chevron in Guelph. For more information please see her website www.myclimb.ca

If you would like to support Christina, please visit her webpage HERE or call our office at 519-836-7672.
