Hi, and thanks for visiting the site. Your donation means everything for those of us living with and trying to beat ALS. Last year as my progression worsen I needed ramps, walker and other devices. Because of your generosity ALS United was there to help. ALS doesn't stop and your donation this year will help our team to reach our Walk ALS fundraising goal so ALS United can continue to provide vital services that we depend on to get through each day. Walk 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 I’m walking. To change the statistics. To support us living with ALS. To support the caregivers who help their loved one fight this disease.   To make ALS a livable disease.  

Though my condition continues to worsen there is hope through your donations. 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 making a donation to my team. With your help, we will be able to give hope and make a difference in the lives of people like me living with ALS.
