Marcia Gay Harden Honored at Hope on the Horizon Women’s Luncheon in Palm Beach

The Alzheimer’s Drug Discovery Foundation (ADDF) honored actress, author, and advocate Marcia Gay Harden at its Hope on the Horizon Luncheon held at The Colony in Palm Beach on March 4.

The ADDF, which is the only charity focused solely on finding new drugs for Alzheimer’s, raised over $350,000 for life-saving research at this event. ADDF Board of Governor’s member Nancy Goodes co-chaired the event with Jan Willinger, while Thomas C. Quick, ADDF advocate, hosted the event.

ADDF Co-Chairman Leonard A. Lauder, who presented the Hope on the Horizon award to Harden, said, “Marcia and her mother are an inspiration to everyone who faces the decline of a loved one affected by Alzheimer’s. Marcia’s story reminds us that love and optimism are among our biggest assets in the fight against this devastating disease.”
