About the Founder
Hi! My name is Brit Rothstein, and I am a senior at Walter Payton College Prep in Chicago, IL. I have a passion for hockey and soccer, and hard work and dedication are two things that I value deeply. My grandmother Sheila Rothstein always stressed the value of having these traits in all aspects of life. Sheila was a doctor for the majority of her own life and found great success in the medical field. Sadly, a few years ago, Sheila was diagnosed with Advanced Alzheimer’s disease, and since then her executive functioning and memory skills have deteriorated.
Because of this, I was inspired to create Youth For Alzheimer’s Prevention, for which I am the founder.
