Walk ALS Jersey Shore: Tatiana Martynetz - ALS United Greater New York

July 16, 2016

My family and I have been supporting The ALS Association Greater New York Chapter ever since my father was diagnosed with ALS in 2015. The Greater New York Chapter was there for us from day 1 till ALS took my Tato in August of 2017. This walk helps raise awareness for ALS. But also helps the Association provide all sorts of care and support for people and families struggling with the daily tasks that come with the disease.

Please consider walking with us and becoming a Team Tato member. Or sponsoring us if you are not in the NJ area. With your help, we will be able to make a difference in the lives of people affected by this disease. Below is a link to the Team Tato home page if you would like to become a member:

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 ensure that no one ever hears the words: “You Have ALS” again.

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.
