WELCOME TO FOR THEIR THOUGHTS®

Your Gateway to HOPE & RELIEF

The For Their Thoughts® Foundation (FTTF), created after personally experiencing the isolation and hardship dementia brings to an entire family, is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to creating a supportive community for those affected by dementia & advocate for the brain health of our loved ones and ourselves. Together we are lifting the caregivers, the stigma and EACH OTHER.

System Barriers leave families isolated and without support

Imagine receiving a diagnosis—simply, "It's cancer." No stage. No type. No treatment plan. No follow-up. Just… cancer.

Yet this is the reality for many facing dementia.
