Team Marist ALS Walk Hudson Valley
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. I'm participating again this year in the ALS United Greater New York’s Walk on Sunday, October 18, on the Walkway Over the Hudson to raise funds that will support individuals and families affected by 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.
I've been participating in this fund raising walk for over 10 years since losing a colleague at Marist to the disease. Please consider joining my efforts by donating through this 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.
