My Personal Walk ALS Page
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for visiting my fundraising page. I'm participating in the Walk ALS Westchester on June 1st at Manhattanville College to raise funds that will support my Aunt that was recently diagnosed in March. This disease has unfortunately impacted my family before her recent diagnosis when it claimed my grandmother's life before I was even born. This time my brother and I are able to join my parents in this fight together & spread as much awareness as we can in honor of my incredible warrior of an aunt. We thank you for thinking of our family during this time and appreciate any donations that can be given.
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.
