About Calhoun County Miles for Memories

Miles For Memories is a local organization created in 2013 to raise awareness and funds for Alzheimer’s Disease.  Later in 2014, we expanded our vision to include all types of dementia.  We raise money each year through sponsorships, community events, and grants to gather funds to create local programming for both the person living with dementia and the caregiver.  Along with our local efforts we also send 20% of the funds to prevention-related dementia research at Michigan State University.  We are a committee of 70-plus volunteers and are always looking for more to get involved.  The Vision — Creating solutions for those impacted by dementia in Calhoun County through movement, programming and research.
