THE LEGACY AND IMPACT OF RITA HAYWORTH

Rita Hayworth, an American actress, dancer and producer was diagnosed in 1980 with younger-onset Alzheimer's disease. 

To continue her mother's legacy, Princess Yasmin Aga Khan
established the Rita Hayworth galas in Chicago and New York City.

The events have raised over $92 million to advance the care support and research efforts of the Alzheimer's Association.
