Humble & Kind, an Alzheimer's Foundation

Established to honor the legacy of Patti Schommer. 

Our mission is to provide support and financial resources to families whose loved one is suffering from young onset Alzheimer’s. In addition, we will continue partner with the Alzheimer's Association to ensure continued research to find treatments and prevention 

 Humble & Kind is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization. Donations are tax-deductible.

Our History

Patti was diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's in the fall of 2014 at the young age of fifty-six.  Patti exemplified the qualities of being humble and kind. She was the friend and family member who showed up even before you needed her.  She was present with a prayer or a word of advice and probably something sweet to eat.  Her strong faith in God guided every decision she ever made.  She taught us to shower people with kindness and lead by example. Patti fought her battle with Alzheimer’s with dignity and grace. May we follow her example and strive to live always being humble and kind.

Our Mission

Our family is blessed to have an extensive network of family and friends who supported us as we lived this journey.  We know how important it is to have others walking alongside us, holding us up, and reminding us we are not alone.  To honor Patti’s memory, we have established “Humble and Kind, an Alzheimer’s Foundation”.   

Our mission is to provide support and financial resources to families whose loved one is suffering from a young onset of Alzheimer’s. In addition we will continue to partner with the Alzheimer's Association to ensure continued research to find treatments and prevention.

Fundraising Journey

On September 17th, 2016, we came together as a team of 60+ participants in the Minneapolis Walk to End Alzheimer’s event.  Our team raised over $8,500 exceeding our goal of  $6,000.  We had one of the largest teams at the event.  Our team name is Team Humble and Kind because that is exactly what Patti was.  That walk sparked an energy in all of us to keep fundraising. Since that day, we have raised over $85,000 dollars and recently began Humble and Kind, An Alzheimer’s Foundation.  

Walk to End Alzheimer’s

•  2016: largest family team
• 2017: largest family team
• 2019: Patti was welcomed on stage to hold the blue flower signifying she had Alzheimer’s, she was unable to complete this task alone and was accompanied by husband Mark.  
• 2020: Due to Covid the walk looked different, the family held their own intimate walk near a family cabin up north. 
• 2021: Was our first walk without Patti

This year’s Walk to End Alzheimer’s is September 21st, 2024
