Community nonprofits whose funding is dedicated to local programming are invaluable. No organization does that better than Alzheimers Coachella Valley (ACV). Since 2017, the nonprofit has offered innovative programs, services and education for desert residents with cognitive impairment, their families and care partners.
ACV offers more than 25 evidence-based programs including the valley’s only no-cost cognitive screening center, social activities such as Club Journey, certified dementia training for health care professionals and lay persons, and numerous support groups. Each month, ACV serves more than 500 people in need of support and all services are free of charge.
On March 26, ACV will celebrate its fifth annual fundraiser, Endless Possibilities. The festive event brings the community together for an evening of cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, dinner, auctions and live entertainment featuring Mark Kopitzke and the Nightcaps. The evening will also honor philanthropist and Alzheimer’s advocate Sherwyn Turbow of La Quinta, who will receive the Edie Keller Leadership Award. Mr. Turbow is recognized for his many contributions to community support and research.
“We are thrilled to be able to honor and recognize one of our Valley’s leading philanthropists,” said Dominick Calvano, president of ACV’s Board of Directors. “A champion of ACV and our mission, Sherwyn has taken a ‘hands on’ approach to supporting not only ACV, but also the Jewish Federation, Desert Cancer Foundation and Planned Parenthood.”
Endless Possibilities will be held at the Tommy Bahama Miramonte Resort and Spa in Indian Wells on March 26, from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Tickets are $250 and all monies raised stay in the Valley as ACV is not affiliated with any national nonprofit organizations. The event standardly sells out so secure your ticket today and we hope to see you there!
