Help me create a world free of ALS. Walking for Harvey, walking for a cure!
Hello!
I hope this finds everyone doing well. This June 1st, we will be participating in the Quinte area ALS walk at Zwicks park. We walk in honour of my grandfather Harvey Putman, who we lost to this devastating disease in 2002. We walk to honour his memory and to raise funds for other families that are currently dealing with ALS. 60% of funds raised will stay in the area to assist families dealing with this diagnosis while 40% goes to further research efforts that will hopefully lead to the day when an ALS diagnosis is not a death sentence. We will be participating as "Harvey's Holsetins" and would appreciate any donations that assist us in our fundraising efforts. Thank you!
This summer we will be participating in the ALS Canada Walk to End ALS. Now more than ever, the ALS community needs our support to provide hope and help to 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 consider supporting our team and donating towards this important cause.
Your support will help to:
- Create a better day-to-day reality for people and 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.
Join our team in making a difference. Please 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!
