Kathy Siggins of Mt. Airy has been leading an effort to find a cure for Alzheimer's through the sale of stamps she helped to create. This specialty stamp is being sold with a portion of its proceeds going to Alzheimer's research at NIH. Kathy's mission to end Alzheimer's has come a long way, but it's far from over. And you can help.
