✨ Happy New Year to Our Caregiving Community ✨

As we welcome a brand-new year, we want to pause and reflect on all the meaningful moments that shaped the year behind us—and most of all, on you.

This past year brought challenges, growth, and powerful reminders of what community truly means. We celebrate ONE YEAR in our new space which has brought so much joy to us! We were very fortunate to have Huntington Common Charitable Foundation managed by Kennebunk Savings Bank help fund our move. This new space has brought many smiles and many small but wonderful moments to our families!

Together, we celebrated an incredible fundraiser, A Night To Remember, that exceeded expectations and strengthened our ability to serve families living with Alzheimer’s. Because of your generosity, participation, and belief in our mission, we were able to expand awareness, deepen connections, and create real impact for those in our community.

As we step into this new year, we do so with gratitude, optimism, and a renewed dedication to walking alongside families living with Alzheimer’s—offering compassion, practical support, and hope every step of the way. We are excited for what 2026 has to offer!

Thank you for being part of our community. We’re so honored to continue this journey with you in the year ahead. 💙

Here’s to a year of connection, care, and continued progress.

With Love and Gratitude — The APTS Team

With the hustle and bustle of the holidays behind us, we wanted to take some time and thank the crew at The Nonantum Resort for their efforts during this year's Christmas Prelude!

The cookie crawl was a great success this year, raising $3335.00!

Thank you so much for all who participated and for The Nonantum for recognizing our organization as this year's receiving nonprofit for the event! This has made a big impact in supporting local families navigating an Alzheimer’s diagnosis so thank you for continually supporting and caring for our community.

And Congratulations to the winning Linzer Cookie baked by their own in-house baker, Bryce!

We will continue to provide all our programming and consultations FREE of charge to the families seeking our help. We are able to continue this mission because of the love and support we have received from all of our amazing supporters!
