Many of the men on the team have had family members personally affected by Alzheimer's, whether it's been grandparents, aunts, uncles or parents. With a new opportunity to support a charity in the lead-up to the Head of the Charles Regatta we've chosen to support the Cure Alzheimer's Fund.

The Fund seeks to provide rapid review and approvals for submitted grants and insists on collaboration among funded scientists. In addition, the board of directors pays for all overhead expenses - as such, 100% of donations go directly to research.
