With a strong show of community spirit, 登录入口 students, faculty and staff joined the fight against Alzheimer’s by taking part in the Walk to End Alzheimer’s on Oct. 18, 2025, at Stewart Beach.

The event, hosted by the Alzheimer’s Association, drew nearly 1,000 participants who gathered to honor loved ones and support the search for a cure.

GC’s team was organized by GC Instructor Laura Gettman, and supported by LT Rivera, the college’s 学生活动 Coordinator, and Priselda Perez, GC Director of Upward Bound. Perez coordinated 31 students and staff volunteers who assisted with event logistics and community engagement throughout the morning.

盖特曼说：“这样的事件提醒我们，每一步都很重要。 “It’s inspiring to see our students and community come together with such compassion and determination to make a difference.”

Despite the cloudy skies and rain that shortened the walk midway, participants provided plenty of energy and the event offered a time for reflection on loved ones lost to Alzheimer’s and renewed hope for finding a cure.
