The ADDF was once again selected as an official charity partner for the TCS New York City Marathon. Donations to our team, Runners for Alzheimer's Research, directly support research into new treatments for this devastating disease. In 2015, our eight team members raised nearly $85,000, far surpassing their goal.
Though we are making great strides, Alzheimer's remains the only top 10 cause of death in the U.S. that can't be prevented, cured, or even slowed. By supporting our team, Runners for Alzheimer's Research, you will help us further our mission to rapidly accelerate the discovery of drugs to prevent and treat Alzheimer's disease.

Please note that the Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation is no longer accepting applications for invitational entry into the 2016 TCS New York City Marathon.
