The Alzheimer’s Disease
Research Center at Washington University is funded by grants from
the National Institute on Aging. Although we are not "needy" per
se, we do have specific financial needs associated with our
research, education and community outreach efforts.
Private donations help
us expand our federal mandate to meet important needs such as:
-
Supporting our
Postdoctoral Research Fellowship Program, which provides new
MD’s and PhD’s with opportunities to work with us for 1-3 years
on special research projects
-
Allowing us to
underwrite innovative pilot research projects to develop
preliminary data for formal grant applications
-
Supporting informative
community education events (e.g., Leonard Berg Symposium)
-
Allowing creative
community and academic partnerships to further knowledge and
service
-
And the list goes on …
If you would like to
make a financial contribution, either as a gift or tribute to a
loved one with Alzheimer’s disease, you may directly send us your
donation by making your check payable to the “Alzheimer’s
Disease Research Center” and mailing it to:
Executive Director
Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center
Washington University School of Medicine -- Campus Box 8111
4488 Forest Park Blvd., Suite 130
St. Louis, MO 63108
Or, you may call us at
(314) 286-2881 to personally speak with a member of our staff for
information about making a donation.
If you are making a
tribute donation and would like others to know about it, we will
send a notification letter to a brief list of individuals. Just
include a note with the names and addresses of persons you would
like to be notified.
Donors with an ongoing
interest in supporting research and education may join the Friends of the ADRC. Click here to download a flyer about this
special group.
Thank you for your kind
support!
