Cure Alzheimer's FundTM is a 501c3 public charity established to provide funding for targeted research into the causes of Alzheimer’s disease. Cure Alzheimer’s Fund is a "doing business as" name for the Alzheimer's Disease Research Foundation, federal tax ID # 52-2396428.
The mission of Cure Alzheimer's Fund is to fund research with the highest probability of slowing, stopping or reversing Alzheimer's disease.
Cure Alzheimer’s Fund is characterized by a Venture Approach to philanthropy; is a national organization headquartered in the Boston, Massachusetts area (see Contact), and was founded by three families -- the Morbys of Pittsburgh, and the McCances and Rappaports of Boston -- who agreed to underwrite the expenses of the Foundation, so every dollar raised goes to fund research.
Cure Alzheimer’s Fund has no endowment and passes funds raised directly to selected research as determined by the Cure Alzheimer’s Research Consortium. The Foundation has no financial or intellectual property interest in the research funded, and will make known the results of all funded research as soon as possible.
The Foundation is governed by a Board of Directors; administered by a fulltime staff; and guided scientifically by the Research Consortium. A Scientific Advisory Board audits the research program to make sure it is consistent with the objectives of the Foundation.
Cure Alzheimer’s Fund exists exclusively to fund targeted research to hasten the slowing, stopping or reversing of Alzheimer’s disease, and welcomes donations of any size.
