Why? “I’ve chosen to support Alzheimer Calgary as a tribute to both of my grandmothers, who spent the final years of their lives living with dementia,” said Gaggan. “Watching them struggle with memory loss and, at times, unable to recognize loved ones was heartbreaking. But it also deepened my commitment to support organizations like Alzheimer Calgary.”

“I truly believe in the important work they do, offering hope, resources, and assistance to families dealing with Alzheimer’s and other dementias. I’m also proud to participate annually in the Alzheimer Walk and Run, raising awareness and funds for this cause. This year, I raised $3,075, which will help ensure those affected by dementia receive the care and support they need.”

“In addition to fundraising, I volunteer at local nursing homes, connecting with Punjabi-speaking residents who are often isolated due to language barriers. By providing companionship and speaking to them in their native language, I help bridge that gap and offer a sense of comfort. For me, it’s about turning personal experience into a force for change and hope, ensuring that families have the support they need now, and that one day, we’ll find a cure.”

Please follow along on our LinkedIn page and our website as we highlight a new charity every business day until December 24th.

From the entire team at the Baun & Pate Investment Group, we wish you and your family a very happy holiday season and a prosperous New Year.
