On June 1st, Team MacBenny Ottawa asks you to join with us here to walk with Carolyn once again in the "ALS Canada Walk to End ALS". Now more than ever, our dear freind needs YOUR support, and you will also be helping all local families affected by ALS. That’s why we're joining thousands of others, a part of a passionate and motivated community to walk in celebration of hope and a world free of ALS. Please join Team MacBenny Ottawa on this walk, and please also consider donating towards this important, personal cause.

Your support will help to:

• Create a better day-to-day reality for Carolyn and all families living with ALS by providing community-based support throughout Ontario – like home visits and support groups – as well as necessary medical equipment like hospital beds, wheelchairs, stairlifts and other items that increase safety in the home, at no cost to those who need them.
• Further scientific progress by investing in the ALS Canada Research Program, which funds promising ALS research. The ALS Canada Research Program is the only national dedicated source of funding for ALS research across Canada. This program provides peer-reviewed grants to researchers whose work has the greatest potential to advance the field of ALS. There’s been more progress made in ALS research in the last five years than over the last century – we need to keep building on this momentum.

Please join Team MacBenny Ottawa in making a real difference to Carolyn. Please also consider donating to our team fundraising page as we work toward a world free of ALS.

Your support is needed now more than ever – we are stronger together!
