Memory Matters

Memory Matters Memory Matters chooses to be kind in all we do in our memory care day program. Volunteers make this possible and are the heart of ALL we do at Memory Matters.

Memory Matters is a non-profit organization that provides day programs, in-person and virtually, for people with memory loss, supports caregivers, and educates the community with optimizing brain wellness. Providing caregivers with a break (a/k/a respite), we offer people with mild to moderate cognitive impairment classes filled with music, art, exercise, brain relaxation, a healthy meal, companionship, and laughter. Our non-profit organization has been in existence since 1998 in the Hilton Head and Bluffton areas. What began in churches to give caregivers a break, we've expanded to providing classes to the community in optimizing brain wellness. Today we continue to give those suffering from Alzheimer's disease and dementia programs to slow the progression of the disease, give caregivers individual and group support, and educate everyone on the importance of keeping your brain and mind healthy. THANK YOU, donors, for helping us provide these services to all who need them. Memories Matter and we are creating them one moment at a time. Street Address: 117 William Hilton Parkway, HHI, SC 29926

Last year, our book club attendees were captivated when Dasha Kiper joined us for a special drop-in conversation. This year, we’re thrilled to welcome her back, this time in person, for a full featured talk as part of our 2026 Speaker Series.

Dasha is the author of Travelers to Unimaginable Lands, a powerful and deeply human account of what dementia symptoms feel like from a caregiver’s perspective. Her work has resonated deeply with families, caregivers, and professionals alike (if you attended of 2025 Speaker Series, you will have received a copy of her book).

Now, she’s here live to share her insights, stories, and reflections, and to connect with our community in a meaningful, intimate setting.

📚 If her book moved you, this conversation will stay with you.
🎤 Join us for a thoughtful, compassionate discussion you won’t want to miss.
Event is FREE - Registration is Required.

What a wonderful day at the Women’s Club of Sea Pines Wellness Fair! 💙
From 10–2, it felt less like tabling and more like catching up with friends. So many familiar faces stopped by, people who know Memory Matters, trust our work, and have joined us over the years for presentations, cooking demos, education classes, and Baseline Memory Screenings.

What I heard again and again was, “What’s new?”
Our upcoming Brain Boosters courses, Cooking demo and the Speaker Series were top of their interest list!
See our EVENTS page for details

And one quick (cheeky) question before spring really settles in…
👉 Who hasn’t had a Baseline Memory Screening yet?
Now’s the perfect time to schedule, before the tennis racquets and pickleball paddles take over the calendar. 😉
To SCHEDULE, visit https://conta.cc/4pAYTFF

Thank you to everyone who stopped by, shared stories, and continues to champion brain health in our community. We’re so grateful for you.
