Project SSMW
Their mission:
Project SSMW has a long tradition at the Royal Military Academy. The final-year students organise various activities inside and outside the school, for pupils and non-pupils, in order to collect money for a charity.
This year, the 161th Promotion SSMW chose Stop Alzheimer.
Stop Alzheimer is a public benefit foundation that focuses on supporting scientific research aimed at understanding, preventing, and treating Alzheimer’s disease. Since 1995, this fund has been gathering financial resources to support innovative and promising research projects related to Alzheimer’s disease.
The fund’s mission is to accelerate scientific progress by financing top-tier research initiatives that can lead to breakthroughs in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of Alzheimer’s. This includes studies on the biological mechanisms of the disease, the development of new therapeutic strategies, and the improvement of patient care.
Stop Alzheimer also plays a significant role in raising public awareness about the disease and the importance of research. By engaging with the community and advocating for increased funding, the fund aims to bring attention to the challenges posed by Alzheimer’s and to support researchers in finding solutions to this global health issue.
Kaki Lion Belgium ASBL
Their mission:
"In the service of those who defend us"
"The association is run by ex-active military personnel (retired or returned to civilian life) and by active military personnel. As you will see, their aim is not only to raise funds for wounded soldiers or their families in the most serious cases, but also to provide them with psychological support if they feel the need, Or to listen to them, whatever problem they have."
MOAT vzw. #WERACEFORHEROES
Their mission:
"PTSD IS NOT A CRIME ! TALKING HELPS !
"This project was born from the idea that there are a lot of people within the emergency services, defense, etc ... who hold themselves strongly against each other. It is also noticed that aid workers sometimes find it difficult to have a chat with a colleague. Or they themselves do not know how and where they can go for help if they are not doing well psychologically or mentally.
MOAT vzw. would like to break this taboo. And what better way to do that than to give a strong signal with a group of racers: "talking helps, there is no shame in it".
