October 21, 2019 (North Tonawanda, NY) ─ From a photo booth at their annual family barbecue to a golf tournament and much more, Wheatfield Commons pulled out all the stops to hold their spot as the top fundraiser in the Lewiston Walk to End Alzheimer’s. The DePaul Senior Living Community in North Tonawanda raised nearly $13,000 for a cure!

“This cause is close to our hearts not only because we work with our residents on a daily basis but also because so many of our own staff have been touched by Alzheimer’s disease in their personal lives, as it has affected their own loved ones,” said Administrator Kathy Hyland-Dion.
