Seniors get active for Alzheimer's disease fundraiser (Richmond Review)

Residents at Fraserview Care Lodge had full schedules last Friday—a day of games, activities and even a piñata.

The 100-bed complex care home played host to an Alzheimer's Association event called the Longest Day, a fundraiser that recognizes the strength, passion and endurance of those facing Alzheimer's disease.

Partnering with Intellicare, staff organized a day full of activities—from hockey and balloon volleyball to bingo and Jenga—while raising funds to support the research and efforts of the Alzheimer’s Association, a global non-profit organization dedicated to care, support and research.
