Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. I'm participating in ALS United Greater New York’s Walk ALS to raise funds that will support individuals and families affected by ALS.

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 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 Greater New York’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.

From The Family;​

Calling All Family & Friends!!! We are walking again in honor of Karen Scheiner Gelb Martinez. Our hope is to raise further awareness & money to continued research for ALS.

This year we would like to get a group together and walk in unity for our forever loved mother, sister, wife, aunt, bubbe, friend, TRULY amazing woman & beautiful human... who we miss dearly.

We would appreciate greatly if you donated and would appreciate even more if you'd come out and walk with us on September 14th 2024. We would love to get shirts made (I think she'd love it) #KarensKrew.

Thank you & this is for you mama.
