Alzheimer’s Foundation Seeks Grant Applications for Innovative Care Programs
Deadline: May 15, 2006

In its ongoing mission to foster optimal care, the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America (<a href="http://alzfdn.org/">http://alzfdn.org/</a>) is accepting applications for the Brodsky Grant, an annual grant recognizing an innovative program or service that improves the lives of individuals with Alzheimer’s disease and related illnesses, and their families.

For 2006, the second year that the grant will be awarded, AFA has increased the amount of the grant to $25,000. The Brodsky Grant will again be presented to a new or existing program that betters the lives of those affected by dementia, and exemplifies innovativeness, greatest need, and replication potential. Programs could involve, but are not limited to, hands-on care, delivery of social services, cognitive stimulation, the arts, safety, and training.

Only nonprofit organizations that are members of AFA may apply. Organizations that join AFA prior to the grant deadline are also eligible.

For more information about the Brodsky Grant and/or AFA membership, see the AFA Web site.
