We’d love for you to be part of the movement and join us on walk day. If leading your own team isn’t the right fit this year, we—the ALS Arizona staff—would be thrilled to have you walk alongside us on our team. Together, we can do so much!

Thank you for donating and helping us reach our ALS Walk fundraising goal! Together, we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of those affected by ALS. Our team is committed to raising funds to support individuals in our community living with ALS, their caregivers, and to spread awareness about the urgent need for effective 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 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 few 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.
