“For Alzheimer’s & Brain Awareness Month, I want to talk about something that impacts all of us: brain health.

Through my work with the American Brain Foundation, I’ve seen firsthand how critical it is to fund research that helps us better understand Alzheimer’s and other brain diseases. Right now, millions of families are affected, and that number is only growing.

But there’s hope. Every breakthrough starts with awareness, and every dollar invested in research brings us closer to better treatments and, one day, a cure.

This month, take a moment to thank the Foundation and help us support their work. Because protecting our brains means protecting who we are." – Kylee Siaw, Account Director

Kyle Clifford, newly anointed CEO of our client amfAR The Foundation for AIDS Research, sat down with Denver Frederick on his Business of Giving Podcast to discuss the path that led him to amfAR and his personal connection to the foundation’s cause.

“So, when that headhunter sat down with me, as I said, he did not know I was HIV positive. I did not know it was amfAR. And when he mentioned and revealed it was amfAR, I said, “I will meet them tomorrow,” because for me, it was full circle. I was like, okay, I have an opportunity here to join an organization that has helped keep me alive.”
