Inspyr Studios to host fundraiser Sept. 24, supporting Alzeheimer's disease research

In partnership with The Longest Day Alzheimer's Association, Inspyr Studios proudly presents a strength and cycling class fundraiser, "Train For The Brain." It will take place at Inspyr Studios, 2924 W. Euclid Avenue, Arlington

Heights on Saturday, September 24, at 9:00 am. Proceeds will benefit The Longest Day Alzheimer's Association to support their work fighting the darkness of Alzheimer's Disease. The fundraiser will feature Inspyr's 60

Minute Strength and Minute Cycling Classes. The classes are open to the public with a minimum $25 donation to attend. Refreshments will be served.

Inspyr Studios, a boutique cycle, strength, yoga and pilates studio, is partnering with The Longest Day Alzheimer's Association to raise funds and awareness for the care, support and research efforts of the Alzheimer's Association through the power of movement.

Raising money for The Longest Day Alzheimer's Association is a cause that is near and dear to Inspyr coach Dr. Holly Hunsberger, Assistant Professor at The Chicago Medical School/RFUMS.

"I'm so excited to bridge my two passions, fitness and science. The Alzheimer's Association does a great job funding top tier science, as well as educating the public on AD care."

"My hope is to raise awareness and funds for AD research and to provide information to the community about lifestyle changes to help prevent or slow dementia, and to supply resources for caregivers."

Dr. Hunsberger reached out to the Longest Day Alzheimer's Association about partnering to raise funds for Alzheimer's research. The Association is funded by philanthropy and each gift supports their objective to help to advance care, support and research across the world. From face-to face support to online education programs and promising worldwide research initiatives, the money raised makes a difference in the lives of those facing Alzheimer' Disease.

Inspyr Studios Managing Partner, Amy Winter, is excited to be hosting this fundraiser, "My hope is that our fundraiser helps raise money to further support Alzheimer's research. We all know someone who has suffered or is suffering from this disease which can have a devastating effect on an individual and their family. We will have classes, a raffle, food, drinks and more. It will be a great day for a great cause."

All are welcome to stop by for food and to donate without participating in the classes.
