Barbara's Walk to Defeat ALS Page

Donate Now
Thank you for helping me reach my Walk to Defeat ALS fundraising goal! The Walk to Defeat ALS raises funds to support those affected by ALS and to spread awareness of the urgency to find treatments and a cure. As many of you know, my husband Paul was diagnosed with ALS in 2021 and we are committed to doing our part to help fund research to bring meaningful treatments and a cure!!
 
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, and presently there is no known cause or cure.
 
That's why I'm walking. To change the statistics. To bring help and hope to those living with the disease. To ensure that no one ever hears the words: "You have ALS" again. 
 
The past two years have brought incredible advancements in ALS research, expanded access to care for people living with ALS, and enabled legislation that impacts the quality of life of people with ALS and their families. 
 
But we can't stop now. The key to a cure begins with you. 
 
Please consider walking with me on June 3 in Westchester or sponsoring me. With your help, we will be able to make a difference in the lives of people affected by this disease. We are so grateful for your support!
