The mission of the CART (Coins for Alzheimer’s Research Trust) Fund is to raise seed money for bold, early-stage Alzheimer’s research—ideas that might otherwise go unfunded but have the potential to unlock breakthroughs in prevention, treatment, and ultimately, a cure. CART is unique in that 100% of all donations go directly to Alzheimer’s research, empowering scientists to gather the initial data needed to secure major grants and advance innovative discoveries.  In June 2025, the CART Fund announced six grant recipients were awarded a total of $2 million in funds for Alzheimer’s research.

What began as Rotarians contributing pocket change at weekly meetings has grown into a powerful grassroots movement. And once again, our clubs are showing how small acts of generosity can create big impact.

Keep the Momentum Going

Let’s continue to support CART with the generosity and energy that define our Rotary clubs. Every coin counts, every dollar makes a difference, and together we can fuel the research that brings hope to millions.
