Welcome to Team Kelly!
Thank you for donating and helping me reach my Walk to Defeat ALS fundraising goal! Since my diagnosis in May, I’ve taken time to process, cope and plan for the future. I’m ready to fight the battle!!
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. Family, friends, coworkers and neighbors have all asked me what they can do to help. This is one way you can support my fight.
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 and 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. If you can’t be there in person, please consider helping me with a donation.
