Today, Kleiman Evangelista Eye Center announced that they will be sponsoring the Alzheimer's Memory Walk in an effort to help raise funds and awareness for Alzheimer's research. The ultimate goal of the Memory Walk is to find a cure for Alzheimer's.

Memory Walk is an annual, national fundraising event that takes place in a number of cities. Kleiman Evangelista Eye Center will be sponsoring the Arlington, TX walk. Drs. David Kleiman and Anthony Evangelista are excited to be a part of this essential cause.
