Cannataro Family Capital Partners Record-Breaking Walk To End Alzheimer's Unites Celebrities, Leaders, & NY Community
(MENAFN- EIN Presswire) EINPresswire/ -- Cannataro Family Capital Partners (CFCP), a New York–based wealth management firm, announced its continued leadership and support of the 2026 Manhattan Walk to End Alzheimer's. The 2025 Walk in November hosted by award winning actor Peter Gallagher with Broadway star Emma Flynn who opened the ceremonies with the National Anthem, brought together more than 4,000 participants in Central Park, and raised a record breaking $1.6 million through individual donations, corporate sponsorships, and community fundraising efforts.
Ahead of the 2025 Walk, Cantor Fitzgerald - which hosts the annual 9/11 Charity Day supporting the Cantor Fitzgerald Relief Fund - invited acclaimed actor David Hyde Pierce and CFCP founder Lou Cannataro to their offices to represent the Alzheimer's Association on this day of remembrance. In addition, Informa's Manhattan office - part of a global organization that hosts its annual“Walk The Word” charity event across its offices worldwide, partnered with CFCP to support and walk for the Alzheimer's Association. These firms' enthusiastic and generous participation highlights the growing partnership between the business community and the Alzheimer's association in accelerating research, expand awareness, and supporting individual workers and their families affected by Alzheimer's.
CFCP has played a leading role in strengthening corporate engagement and community participation in the Manhattan Walk to End Alzheimer's. The firm's fundraising team,“CFCP for Gene,” continues to rank among the Walk's top contributors, mobilizing clients, partners, and supporters across New York in support of the mission of the Alzheimer's Association.
Lou Cannataro's connection to the Alzheimer's Association began after his brother Gene was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's at age 60. Gene battled the disease for 12 years and tragically passed away on the morning of last year's Manhattan Walk, just as participants were gathering in Central Park.
“This fight, like for most families, is personal,” said Lou Cannataro.“My brother Gene's battle inspired our team, our clients, and our community to rally around this cause. Seeing thousands of people come together in Central Park to support families facing Alzheimer's is incredibly powerful. We remain committed to helping accelerate research, expand awareness, and provide support for caregivers.”
Through his leadership and work with the Alzheimer's Association including his role as Chair of the Manhattan Board and Executive Leadership Committee, Lou Cannataro has helped propel the Manhattan Walk in national rankings-from 48th among more than 600 Walks to End Alzheimer's events nationwide to the top three fundraising Walks in the country. Just as important, Manhattan now leads the Walks nationwide in growth of teams and individual participants.“This explosion in teams and participants along with new sponsorships will only lead to further growth in this year's Walk and most importantly, accelerate the moment in time, when we will have the first survivor of Alzheimer's! Corporate leadership and community engagement are essential to driving progress in the fight against Alzheimer's. We are proud to stand alongside the Alzheimer's Association and the thousands of volunteers working towards a future without this disease, stated Lou Cannataro.
