Become a Mentor to an adult who has a Developmental Disability.
ACE Every individual should be able to partake in the community. Integration in the community leads to positive changes in self-esteem. This self-confidence is seen in the workplace and in other aspects of participant’s lives.
Community involvement has included:- classes
- sports
- movies
-
tours
- dinner
- shopping
- walks
However, the important part is the TIME that you spend with the individual, NOT what you do. Results can be achieved going to the grocery store or getting your car washed. It is the FRIENDSHIP that develops between you that makes a difference.
Mentors are vital for the ACE Program to be effective. The opportunity is on-going. We accept volunteers anytime throughout the year. The days & times are flexible. We do ask for a 1 year time commitment.

Charitable gift annuity A charitable gift annuity is an agreement between a donor and a charitable organization in which a donor transfers an asset to a charitable organization, such as the AlzheimerÂ’s Association, and the charitable organization returns lifetime payments to the donor. Annuity payments are backed by all the assets of the AlzheimerÂ’s Association so the donor can be confident that the Gift Annuity will provide income he/she can count on.
In addition, there are tax benefits that add value to the Gift Annuity.
Upon the donorÂ’s death, the AlzheimerÂ’s Association uses the remaining gift assets to benefit the charitable purpose intended by the donor. A legacy of good work lives on in the community in the donorÂ’s name.
To receive a personal CGA calculation, contact the Miriam Boegel, Development Director, at 608-232-3409 or 800-272-3900.
