Why Charity?
This is my grandfather, Marty Wilson. He's a rocket scientist. No, really! He was one of the engineers who designed the rocket boosters on the lunar landing module for the Apollo missions. He's the smartest man I know. That is until early onset dementia turned into Alzheimer's disease. It's heart wrenching to watch this heinous disease slowly strip away his memory, day by day, hour by hour. I'm grateful he's still with us even though he's just a shell of his former self. We must find a cure!
When I created NoCo Alpine Woodworks, I decided that there must be some way, even if it is small, to help find a cure. After thorough research, I chose Alzheimer's Association as the beneficiary of our charitable giving. They are the number one non-profit institution of Alzheimer's research funding.
