Act Now Foundation recently hosted its highly anticipated Fifth Annual Music and Memories Gala, a meaningful evening dedicated to supporting older adults living with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias and their dedicated caregivers.


The night began with a lively cocktail hour, followed by an exclusive trips auction presented by Amfund, a high-end silent auction, various raffles, and an elegant sit-down dinner with live entertainment by The Time Machine Band.


A highlight of the evening was the presentation of the ISA Legacy Award, which was uniquely given to all attendees in the form of a medal, recognizing their ongoing commitment to supporting individuals and families affected by dementia.


As the official program concluded, guests enjoyed an exclusive after-hour celebration, rejoicing in both the funds raised and the community spirit demonstrated throughout the night.
