Welcome to our team page!

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. As you know our beloved mother, Laurie Orfe, passed from ALS this past year.  She was so strong throughout her fight; we will carry on her legacy and continue to raise awareness for this disease.

I'm participating in ALS United Greater New York’s Walk ALS to raise funds that will support individuals and families affected by ALS.

Please consider joining our team in the Walk ALS or choose a team member from the list and donate to our cause. 

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 of the disease, yet it still costs loved ones an average of $250,000 a year to provide the care people living with ALS and their families need.

Help us move a cure for ALS over the finish line by donating today. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of those affected by ALS.

Thank you for your support!
