Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. My family and I have been supporting The ALS United 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.

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.
