Mahjong enthusiasts gathered at Allegro Parkland on May 21 for the senior living community’s annual Mahjong for Memories tournament, raising $1,500 for the Alzheimer’s Association Southeast Florida Chapter.
The event drew 46 players across 11 tables, including Allegro residents, staff members, community partners, friends and local residents. Proceeds from the tournament supported the Alzheimer’s Association’s national “Do What You Love to End Alzheimer’s.” campaign, which raises awareness and funding for Alzheimer’s research and support programs.
“We are incredibly grateful to Allegro Parkland for being such a consistent and passionate partner of the Alzheimer’s Association through their support of our Do What You Love campaign, the Walk to End Alzheimer’s, and the many community events they so generously host throughout the year,” said Tracey Paige, executive director of the Alzheimer’s Association Southeast Florida Chapter.
Mahjong for Memories has become an annual tradition at Allegro Parkland, now in its fourth year. Paige said the event highlights the benefits of activities that promote both connection and cognitive engagement.
“Their team continually demonstrates a deep commitment to raising awareness, supporting families impacted by Alzheimer’s, and creating opportunities for meaningful community connection,” Paige said. “Their annual Mahjong for Memories event is a wonderful example of that dedication. Mahjong is not only a beloved social activity, but also a great way to exercise the brain, encourage cognitive engagement, and foster friendships and connection.”
Allegro Parkland is a luxury senior living community offering independent living, assisted living, and memory care services. The community features amenities including a theater, heated pool, dining options and specialized care programs designed to help residents maintain an active and purposeful lifestyle.
Paige said, “We are proud to partner with organizations like Allegro Parkland that truly understand the importance of supporting both brain health and the community in the fight to end Alzheimer’s and all other dementia.”
