Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!

With others from PTC Therapeutics, I'm participating in ALS United Greater New York’s Walk ALS on the Jersey Shore this September 14 to raise funds that will support individuals and families affected by ALS.

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.

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.

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!

With appreciation,

Aaron Tansy, MD
