What's Going On: "Unforgettable", Green Street Friends Camp, Little Smiles

Alzheimer’s Association Southeastern Pennsylvania Chapter Presents "Unforgettable"Alzheimer’s disease continues to impact millions of families across the country, and here in our region alone, hundreds of thousands of older adults are living with the disease while loved ones step in as caregivers. Raising awareness about the early warning signs, the importance of diagnosis, and greater participation in research is critical—especially in communities that have historically been underrepresented. The Alzheimer’s Association is using the power of storytelling to spark those conversations through a live theatrical production called Unforgettable. Joining us now is Amba Kasongo, Programs Director for the Alzheimer’s Association Southeastern Pennsylvania Chapter, to talk about the impact of this initiative and an upcoming performance in our area.Event Information for Listeners:Unforgettable will take place Saturday, March 14th at 2:00 p.m. at William Penn Charter School – Kurtz Center for the Performing Arts. The performance runs until approximately 4:15 p.m. Attendance is free, but registration is required at www.unforgettableplay.com.

The nonprofit Little Smiles is working to bring moments of joy and normalcy to children and their families across the Delaware Valley. From “Junk Food Runs” that transform hospital hallways into pizza-and-candy celebrations to game nights at Ronald McDonald Houses, the organization creates meaningful experiences that lift spirits during incredibly challenging times. One of their signature events is the Stars Ball, happening April 11, where children receiving treatment are treated like celebrities with red carpet arrivals, autographs, and a magical evening dedicated entirely to celebrating them. Joining us is Steve Grandizio, Executive Director of Little Smiles, to talk about the impact of these moments of joy.
