Thank you for participating and helping us reach our Walk to Defeat ALS fundraising goal for Team Trilogy Walks for Joe! The Walk to Defeat ALS raises funds to support those affected by ALS and to spread awareness of the urgency to find treatments and a cure. 

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 we are walking. To change the statistics. To bring help and hope to our Joe Brimacombe and all the others living with the disease. To support the caregivers (our Rennae) 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 us or making a donation to our team. With your help, we will be able to make a difference in the lives of people affected by this disease.

I am attaching a flyer you can use.  Send it to your friends, for those of you in Trilogy who belong to any of our clubs, please forward this to your other members. 

Thank in advance for whatever you can do,

Kathy Cox and Froma Jacobson
