Assisting Family and Friends in our community living with Early Onset Dementia
Imagine waking up and starting your day but forgetting what you are supposed to be doing. Imagine waking up and not knowing what pills you are supposed to take.
Imagine waking up and forgetting your spouse’s name.
Imagine this happening in your 40’s or 50’s.
Early Onset Dementia is often referred to as young onset dementia. It should be differentiated from Early Stage Dementia which more appropriately describes someone older in the early stages of dementia. For most, Early Onset Dementia runs in the family.

About Us
To some, they may be a friend or a family member. To others, they may remain nameless. But to us, he was Joe.
​
In his fifties, Joe began facing challenges in maintaining steady employment. He experienced memory lapses, disorientation, and difficulty focusing, which hindered his ability to function. Misdiagnosed and with limited support, Joe was at risk of becoming homeless. After countless doctor visits, it was eventually determined that he was suffering from Early Onset Dementia..
A group of Joe’s childhood friends founded EOD Remember Me to raise funds that are directly used to provide housing and proper care for those living with Early Onset Dementia (EOD). Although Joe has since passed, the charity continues in his honor, working to support others affected by this debilitating disease. Through our efforts, we have been able to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those suffering from EOD. Our goal is to expand our reach by offering financial assistance, guidance, and a safe environment, ensuring individuals can live with the care and dignity they deserve.
Our all-volunteer Board of Directors is constantly seeking expert advice and additional volunteers to support our mission. If you are passionate about making a meaningful impact for those in need, we encourage you to connect with us by submitting your information on the Contact Us page. Your involvement would be greatly appreciated.
