It's That Time of Year . . .

Over $7,000- the amount of money the ALS association has saved us, 7- the number of items we currently have on loan from the ALSA loan closet, 4- the number of hours of respite care we receive every two months, the support and information we’ve received- priceless .

Since my diagnosis, I have been very vocal about how much the ALSA has helped and supported us and now is the time of year in which we get a chance to tell them thank you. The annual Walk to Defeat ALS is the largest fundraiser for the ALSA and provides them the ability to support all the families who rely on them as ours does. I’m sure this will be the first of many blatant requests for walkers and donations leading up to the October 11th walk at Tempe Town Lake!

Just like last year, we want as many people as possible to come out and join our Chase The Cure For ALS walk team, including our virtual walkers who are out of state! I’m attaching the link below to register to walk (bottom of page) or to make a donation (bottom of the page and select a team members name).

Thank you for your support!
