Our Needs
AWARE is a nonprofit organization that empowers North Texans to rise above the challenges of Alzheimer’s disease and dementia together. Since AWARE’s founding in 1989 by a group of volunteers, the Dallas-based organization has invested more than $15 million in local providers, researchers and innovators fighting for our loved ones and a cure. Every dollar that AWARE grants stays in North Texas to benefit the local community.
AWARE also invites North Texans impacted by Alzheimer’s and dementia to join Friends of AWARE—a community of individuals, caregivers and professionals with a vested interest in supporting the best care in our region today and hope for a cure tomorrow. Individuals navigating the challenges of these diseases—including patients, caregivers and professionals—connect, learn and advocate for solutions in North Texas.
You can support AWARE’s mission by giving today through North Texas Giving Day, joining Friends of AWARE, and attending our annual signature fundraiser, AWARE Affair: Boots Buckles & Brain Health on April 17, 2027. To learn more, go to www.awarenorthtexas.org.
