Distinguished Donor Breakfast 2026

On July 22, 2026, MemoryCare held a special breakfast at the Hilton in Biltmore Town Square for those who support our mission. Director of Philanthropy, Lisa Fort, and Executive Director, Chrissie Gulden, welcomed our guests and thanked our founder, Dr. Margaret Noel, for her vision. During breakfast our Medical Director, Dr. Nikki Gordon, educated the crowd presenting Aging, Brain Health, and Supporting Caregivers. Volunteers were then recognized by Jennifer Marlowe, Development and Education Coordinator, before Laura Meherg, MemoryCare Board President, shared her experience with MemoryCare in her closing remarks.
Beyond the wonderful conversations and shared breakfast, this morning was a powerful reminder of why we gather. Because insurance and Medicare only cover a portion of comprehensive dementia care, MemoryCare in Asheville relies on charitable donations to bridge that gap. Every gift ensures that local families and caregivers receive the specialized medical care, counseling, and long-term support they need so no one has to navigate this journey alone. Thank you to everyone who joined us and continues to make this vital work possible.
