Let’s Fight Alzheimer
"Let's Fight Alzheimer" is a slogan very close to our hearts at
Interloop. Being an institutor of building awareness about
Alzheimer's disease since 2015, it is a proud moment for
Interloop to introduce the new batch of Alzheimer Socks
2020/2021. Teaming up on the project, Interloop Limited and
Interloop Europe have contributed to the 5th edition of these
socks. The two different socks in a pair symbolize the confusion
that Alzheimer/Dementia patients experience every day. By
wearing these socks with a cause, we make Alzheimer a subject
of discussion and awareness. All funds generated through the
sale of Alzheimer Socks go to Alzheimercentrum Amsterdam for
scientific research.
In 2015, 17, 18 & 19 Interloop Pakistan collaborated with Euro
Sox Plus B.V / Interloop Europe to produce Alzheimer Socks,
generating approximately €1.78 million, which were donated for
research on diagnostics and treatment of Alzheimer's disease.
