ALZHEIMER’S / DEMENTIA ROTARY ACTION GROUP
Connecting the people who care with ways to help.
Our mission
Turn shared concern
into meaningful action.
We equip Rotary and Rotaract clubs with knowledge, partnerships, and support to act on a cause that touches lives everywhere.
That means raising awareness, supporting caregivers, connecting people living with dementia, and engaging with partners advancing the search for a cure.
ADRAG helps clubs and districts find their place in this work—bringing people, experience, and opportunities together so service can begin where it matters most: in our communities.
The future we work toward

PEOPLE ARE THE REASON WE SERVE.The purpose behind the work
Behind every cause,
someone you love.
A parent. A partner. A friend. A neighbor. For many of us, Alzheimer’s and dementia are deeply personal.
That personal connection is also a reason to reach outward: to share what we know, support those who care, and bring people together. ADRAG gives that commitment a community and a direction.
