Thank you for visiting my fundraising page and helping keep the New Haven Walk going strong.  I'm so proud of this walk and want keep my mother's memory alive.  ALS is the most cruel disease and we need to find a cure!  After starting this walk in 2001 I am thrilled to see it grow however we still NEED A CURE and we NEED EFFECTIVE TREATMENTS!

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive, fatal neuromuscular disease that slowly robs the body of it's 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 regardless of age, gender, nationality, or ethnicity, although it is primarily an adult-onset disease.  Currently there is no known cause or cure.

Being a part of ALS United Connecticut's Walk ALS is the number one way to unite and fundraise for those living with ALS.  Please consider supporting my efforts by donating through my fundraising page.

Your donation today will help fund resources and services to the local ALS community, help find new ALS treatments, and move us closer to a world without the disease.

Please feel free to send this page to any friend or family member who might be interested in donating!

Thank you!
