You're making a great choice to help thousands of people through a horrible time of their life. The ALS Foundation made things so much better for us with my father and his last couple years with us. There is so much The ALS Foundation made possible for us. These families need all the support you can provide.
Thank you for donating and helping me reach my Walk to Defeat ALS fundraising goal! The Walk to Defeat ALS is close to my heart because my father passed away from ALS. This organization truly made such a difference to provide him things to support his lifestyle and provide him with comfort through a devastating disease.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive, fatal neuromuscular disease that slowly robs the body of its ability to walk, speak, swallow and breathe. The life expectancy of a person with ALS averages 2 to 5 years from the time of diagnosis. ALS can strike anyone, and presently there is no known cause or cure.
That’s why I’m walking. To change the statistics. To bring help and hope to those living with the disease. To support the caregivers who help their loved one fight this disease. To ensure that no one ever hears the words: “You Have ALS” again!
The past two years have brought incredible advancements in ALS research, expanded access to care for people living with ALS, and enabled legislation that impacts the quality of life of people with ALS and their families.
But, we can’t stop now! The key to a cure starts with all of US. Please consider walking with me or making a donation to my team. With your help, we will be able to make a difference in the lives of people affected by this disease.
