Join Lutheran Home's 2025 Walk to End Alzheimer’s Team
Walk, Donate, and Support the Fight Against Alzheimer's Sept. 21 at Busse Woods

Lutheran Home in Arlington Heights is proud to announce its participation in the 2025 Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s. This year’s walk will take place on Sunday, September 21, at Busse Woods in Elk Grove Village, and the community is invited to join Lutheran Home’s team in raising awareness and funds to fight Alzheimer’s disease.
The Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s is the world’s largest event to support Alzheimer’s care, support, and research. More than 6 million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s, and over 11 million family members and friends provide care every day. Lutheran Home is committed to standing with these families—and is asking the community to help by joining the team.
“This fight is deeply personal for so many of us,” said Jennifer Darnell, Vice President of Sales & Marketing for Lutheran Life Communities. “Every step we take brings us closer to a future without Alzheimer’s. We invite the entire community to walk with us, donate, and spread the word. We hope the community and family members will join Lutheran Home on September 21 and take a stand to end Alzheimer’s—together.”
