Kathy Wright is Retiring

After more than 30 years as the Alzheimer Society’s Executive Director, Kathy Wright is retiring. Kathy has overseen the Alzheimer Society’s growth from a one-person office on a shoestring budget to a vibrant organization with over 3500 clients, staffed by 25 people and supported by hundreds of volunteers.

Asked about her legacy, Kathy says: “I would be honoured to think that I’ve played a meaningful role in the shift in awareness, understanding, quality of care and services provided to those living with dementia.”

Please join us for a drop-in reception for Kathy at Lupton Hall in the Perley and Rideau Veterans’ Health Centre, 1750 Russell Road, on Tuesday, July 26, 2016 from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. All are welcome to come and wish Kathy a happy retirement.

Any individual or organization that wishes to honour Kathy’s legacy with a gift is encouraged to make a contribution to the Alzheimer Society’s Wright Choice Fund – providing the right help at the right time.
