Moore, SallyTitle: President, Executive Director
Company: Perks N Moore, Inc.
Location: Boynton Beach, FL United States

Motivated by her 12 years as an Alzheimer’s caregiver, as well as the wisdom and love she received from her parents, husband and fellow caregivers, Sally Moore decided to start Perks N Moore, Inc. In 1983, her mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, and less than 10 years later, her husband was diagnosed with younger-onset Alzheimer’s. Mrs. Moore devoted her life to caring for both of them, but in 1994, her mother died, and 21 months later, her husband died as well. After her husband’s death, the caregiver group she was a part of asked her to be their Anchor of Hope and assist them during their journey through the maze of Alzheimer’s with their loved ones. By listening to them and responding to their needs appropriately, Mrs. Moore hoped to increase their health and well-being, reduce stress and isolation, and restore peace and joy to their daily lives. These caregivers led her to continue on in the field, and eventually start her own nonprofit organization.
