The Alzheimer Society of Kenora-Rainy River has launched its 50/50 draw.
You could win up to $5,000.
Money from the fundraiser supports dementia programs and services across the region.
Spokesperson Shyler Hendrickson says that includes their signature ‘Music Project’.
“It’s particularly effective for our clients who are in the middle and late stages of dementia, who maybe have a difficult time being present in the moment in the world. What the ‘Music Project’ does is it brings back the memories that they associate with that music.”
Hendrickson notes tickets are limited and the draw will take place December 16.
Ticket sales will stop December 14.
They are available at a variety of locations.
