The Alzheimer’s Foundation Of America (AFA) Is Inviting Sites All Over The World – From Buildings, Bridges, And Stadiums To City Halls And Homes – To Sign Up For Its Global “Light The World In Teal” Alzheimer’s Awareness Initiative.

Sites across the globe will be lighting up in teal—AFA’s Alzheimer’s awareness color—on Monday, November 3rd as part of Alzheimer’s Awareness Month to spotlight the issue of Alzheimer’s Disease and show support for all those affected by it.

“Whether it’s a skyscraper or a single-family home, every structure that signs up for this program helps to raise Alzheimer’s awareness, show support, and spark conversations about a growing, global public health crisis that currently affects 55 million people worldwide,” said Charles J. Fuschillo, Jr., AFA’s President and CEO. “We’re grateful to each site that has signed up thus far, and encourage those who haven’t to do so, and help make the teal Alzheimer’s awareness spotlight as bright as possible.”

No registration fees are required to participate in the program. More than 1,300 sites in all 50 U.S. states and 16 other countries/territories have already signed up to participate in this year’s program.
