Thank you for helping me reach my ALS Walk fundraising goal! I walk every year in memory of my Aunt Jennifer. Not a day goes by that I don’t think about her and wish there was a cure for this awful disease. She doesn’t get to watch her baby girl grow up or see how well I’m doing in my career. If I could have one wish, it would be for at-least 5 more minutes with her. One more day! So please, reach past those lint balls in your pockets or purse and donate to help find a cure for ALS! Donations are used for research and to help family’s and patients with needs that are dealing with 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, and presently there is no known cause or cure.
