Presentation About PuzzlesToRemember at Philips Corporation

Puzzles to Remember



Today I gave a presentation about PuzzlesToRemember at Philips Corporation in Andover. Specifically, I spoke to the Ultrasound Department members.

They, and other departments, have been collecting puzzles for Alzheimer’s patients since September. They have donated almost 200 puzzles. They were very interested to hear about Alzheimer’s patients and how they benefit from working on puzzles. They were also interested in the Springbok PuzzlesToRemember, developed specifically for Alzheimer’s patients.


They plan on continuing to collect puzzles as part of their ongoing community involvement. I thank them. They are making a difference in the lives of many people.

Max Wallack is a student at Boston University Academy. His great grandmother, Gertrude, suffered from Alzheimer's disease. Max is the founder of PUZZLES TO REMEMBER. PTR is a project that provides puzzles to nursing homes and veterans institutions that care for Alzheimer's and dementia patients.
