Dementia Friendly Fort Worth  relies upon generous donations from individuals, companies, organizations and foundations. It is our desire to see individuals and companies who have been impacted by dementia to become regular supporters. Your gift provides social engagement to older adults who are alone, isolated and at greater risk for developing dementia!

Your donation also supports these important programs:

• • 5th Street Café and Care Partner Support Group. A twice monthly gathering for fun, engaging activities for those with early-stage dementia and a support group for care partners to receive education and support. TCU Harris College of Nursing & Health Science students are volunteering their time to facilitate the activities for the group. The support group is facilitated by Dr. Michelle Kimzey, Associate Professor at TCU Harris College of Nursing & Health Sciences. Lunch for participants and care partners is provided by a sponsor.

• • Let’s Get Together — a Social Club for Older Adults! Daily online activity sessions designed to engage seniors who are living at home and struggle with anxiety, boredom, depression, loneliness and have limited opportunities to engage socially with others. Having a routine can be a major benefit for those isolated and at risk for developing dementia. This program is offered five days a week! Each session will feature a guest presenter who will guide participants through fun and engaging activities. Participants will be joined by others who find themselves in a similar situation. Special thanks to the United Way/Area Agency on Aging for funding a portion of this program.

• Dementia Friendly Chapel. These services are offered through our YouTube channel and can be used on demand. Each one, which is offered virtually includes singing old hymns, hearing the stories behind some of our favorite hymns, scripture reading, and prayer, but no sermon. Join us as we enjoy these old familiar hymns.
