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.

This cause is very special to me because my best buddy and cousin, Danny Johnson, passed away in 2015 at the age of 54 years old after a short and brave battle with ALS.  Danny was the light of our extended family, always organizing family gatherings: "cousin camping trips," Easter Egg hunts that included numerous prizes for the children, inventing the famous "Christmas Tree Game," which continues as a family tradition.  I could go on and on.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive, fatal neuromuscular disease that slowly robs the body of its ability to walk, speak, swallow and breathe. 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.
