Do it for Deb
Hi everyone! I'm participating in ALS United Greater New York’s Walk ALS in memory of my mom, Debbie Mizzone, who we tragically lost to ALS in 2014. My mom was the strongest person I've ever known and she never stopped fighting while she lived with ALS, and I will never stop fighting for a cure for it.
Please consider joining our team in the Walk ALS or choose a team member from the list and donate to our cause to support people in our local community with ALS and spread awareness.
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 and let's do it for Deb!
