The Alzheimer's Society of Manitoba is getting ready for its next fundraiser.

The annual coffee breaks will be held in September.

Warkentin says the actual coffee break day is September twenty first.

She says however those hosting coffee breaks can set up dates any time throughout the month. Warkentin says the coffee breaks are not just fundraisers.

She says although it's up to the host as to what takes place, they do see it as an awareness event as well.

Warkentin says last year they raised ten thousand dollars within the region.

She is hopes they can surpass their total from 2005.
