Miami, FL. (November 2024) Independent Living Systems (ILS), a leading provider of health and social services for vulnerable populations in Medicare, Medicaid, and Dual-Eligible markets, proudly concluded 2024 with nearly $150,000 raised in employee fundraising and corporate sponsorships to support the fight against Alzheimer’s disease.

This achievement underscores ILS’s ongoing partnership with the Alzheimer’s Association and its commitment to advancing care, support, and research for those affected by this devastating illness.

This year, approximately 200 ILS employees, along with friends and family, participated in Walk to End Alzheimer’s events across the United States, including key locations in Florida, New York, and California. The company’s efforts placed it once again among the top national teams in fundraising for the Alzheimer’s Association.

The Walk to End Alzheimer’s events serve as a cornerstone in the Alzheimer’s Association’s efforts to raise awareness and funds for Alzheimer’s care and research. By participating in these events, ILS aligns its mission with a broader goal of creating healthier, more resilient communities.
