This September is the 10th Annual World Alzheimer's Month.

World Alzheimer's Month is an international campaign organized by Alzheimer's Disease International every September to raise awareness and challenge the stigma that surrounds dementia.

Raising awareness about Alzheimer’s continues to of great significance as the disease affects about 6 percent of people aged 65 years and older, but an average of 2 out of 3 people globally have little or no understanding of it or of dementia.
