(WELLESLEY HILLS, MA) – October 30, 2024 – Boston Bruins legend, Ray Bourque, and his family have selected Cure Alzheimer’s Fund to benefit from the annual Bourque Family Foundation annual charitable golf tournament.

Bourque Golf is an annual celebrity golf tournament hosted by the NHL Hall of Famer at The Golf Club of New England in Stratham, New Hampshire. This year, the tournament was held on August 22 and raised more than $50,000 for Cure Alzheimer’s Fund, 100% of which will be used to support research into the disease.

“We are deeply grateful to Ray, his family and the Bourque Family Foundation for joining us in the fight against Alzheimer’s Disease,” said Meg Smith, CEO of Cure Alzheimer’s Fund. “Developing effective, accessible therapies requires deep understanding of the complex causes and pathologies of Alzheimer’s. The scientists CureAlz supports are pursuing high-risk, high-reward research vital for future prevention and treatment of this devastating disease. This gift helps make progress possible.”
