In addition to a corporate donation through the company’s Sikich Cares philanthropy program, the effort combined fundraising with active volunteer engagement, including participation as a National Team in the 2024 Walk to End Alzheimer’s^® in more than 20 cities across the United States and India.

Sikich also offered educational resources and awareness sessions to help team members learn more and access support tools for caregiving. The company selected the Alzheimer’s Association^® as its philanthropic focus for 2024 based on team members’ input.

“Alzheimer’s is a cause that resonates across our Sikich family, with many of our team serving as caregivers or having loved ones affected by the disease. Their passion to make a difference inspired us to come together as one team,” said Sikich CEO Christopher Geier. “This Giving Tuesday, we’re extending our support and making donations to the Alzheimer’s Association on behalf of our clients as well.”

The impact of Alzheimer’s is staggering, with nearly seven million Americans over 65 living with the disease and more than 11 million serving as caregivers nationwide. To learn more about the company’s commitment to the Alzheimer’s Association, please visit the Sikich National Team Walk page.
