The difference you make by registering
In Victoria alone there are an estimated 110,000 people living with dementia. Your fundraising efforts enable Dementia Australia to enhance lives and create a hopeful future for those impacted by dementia.
With your support, we can deliver outstanding services and fuel pioneering research, moving us closer to a future without dementia.
It's about joining a community of people who all share an understanding of the uniqueness of dementia.
