Garage sale to benefit Association for Frontotemporal Degeneration

MADISON – A garage sale planned this Saturday in Madison will benefit the non-profit group Association for Frontotemporal Degeneration (AFTD).

FTD is the most common form of dementia for people under age 60.  It represents a group of brain disorders caused by degeneration of the frontal and/or temporal lobes of the brain. FTD is also frequently referred to as frontotemporal dementia, frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), or Pick’s disease.

The garage sale will be held Oct. 2, 8 a.m.-4 p.m., at 136 Pebblebrook Circle in Madison/

Organizers are hoping area residents will come buy items, learn about FTD, and support a worthy non-profit. All proceeds go to AFTD.
