Why We Exist > Our Mission
Everything we do is about KEEPING FAMILIES CONNECTED during the Alzheimer’s journey.
We bring joy to the fight against Alzheimer’s as we pursue our mission by:
1) Recognizing the challenges of the disease with honest awareness wrapped in a positive spirit.
2) Teaching people how to creatively connect with someone who has Alzheimer’s.
3) Encouraging caregivers and families, not just with words but by providing practical resources.
The mission of Songs & Smiles grew out of the personal experience of our founders. They learned firsthand how difficult it can be to keep family and friends together during the Alzheimer’s journey.
Our mission stems from the desire of our founders to help other families facing the challenges of caring for a loved one who has Alzheimer’s.
The need is great. Alzheimer’s can destroy connections between families, friends, and communities.
Friends stop visiting. Celebrations cease. Communities quit reaching out. Families drift apart.
Our mission seeks to turn that tragic narrative around. We invite you to get involved in this important work. Together, we can fulfill our mission of keeping families connected during the Alzheimer’s journey.
