ALZHEIMER’S ASSOCIATION, NEW YORK CITY CHAPTER HOSTS ANNUAL
“FORGET-ME-NOT” GALA,
An Evening to End Alzheimer’s
Tony Award winner David Hyde Pierce Will Serve as Emcee
Members of New York City’s philanthropic, business, health
care and Alzheimer’s communities will join forces at the
Alzheimer’s Association, New York City Chapter’s annual
“Forget-Me-Not” Gala, An Evening to End Alzheimer’s, on
Monday, June 6, 2011 at The Pierre. The evening will offer a
cocktail reception, silent and live auctions, dinner and
dancing to Valerie Romanoff’s Starlight Orchestra. David
Hyde Pierce, 2007 Tony Award winner, will emcee the event.
David, a tireless advocate in the Alzheimer’s community,
serves on the Board of the National Alzheimer’s Association
and as a national spokesperson. He lost his father and
grandfather to the disease.
Bob & Helen Appel will receive the 2011 Community Leadership
Award for their generous donation to establish Helen and
Robert Appel Alzheimer's Disease Research Institute at
New York-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center. Alex
Appel, who is raising awareness and money across the nation
as an ultra-marathoner – running in honor of his grandmother
who has Alzheimer’s – will receive the 2011 Young Leadership
Award. The 2011 Public Awareness Award will go to CBS 2
medical reporter, Dr. Max Gomez. Dr. Gomez courageously
shared with the world the story of his father, a physician,
with Alzheimer’s who lost his life savings as an easy victim
for financial predators. The gala will be chaired by Chapter
Board member Peter A. Antonucci.
Tony Award winner Brian Stokes Mitchell will perform. A
ctor Victor Garber is also expected to attend.
Tickets start at $1,000 and are on sale now. Numerous
