    Walk to End Alzheimer's: Sponsored by BrightStar Care of Conejo Valley and Coastal Los Angeles

    November 14, 2024

    Alzheimer’s touches so many lives, and at BrightStar Care of Conejo Valley and Coastal Los Angeles, we know how deeply this journey affects families, caregivers, and communities.

    We were honored to step up in support at this year’s Walk to End Alzheimer’s, standing side by side with those who’ve experienced the heartbreak of this disease.

    On October 13th, we gathered in Hermosa Beach for an unforgettable day filled with hope, love, and a shared commitment to finding a cure for Alzheimer’s. With smiles, we walked with purpose, united in our efforts to raise awareness and support for Alzheimer's research.

    But the journey didn’t stop there. Just a week later, on October 19th, we laced up our shoes once again for the Westlake Village walk, carrying the same passion to make a difference.
