Chantal Walks for a Difference
I’m Walking for Those Who Can’t
I’m Walking for Those Who Can’t
Every 90 minutes, someone is told their life as they know it is ending.
Families are told to prepare for the worst, and some say their final goodbyes.
This fatal disease can strike anyone at any time.
It takes away the freedom to walk, to talk, to run and dance.
To laugh. To hug. To feel.
To eat. To taste. To drink.
To breathe.
That's why I'm walking.
To change the statistics. To bring help and hope to those living with the disease. To ensure that no one ever hears the words: “You Have ALS".
We fight to give that independence back - and help empower people to live life to the fullest.
Now more than ever, the ALS community needs our support to provide hope and help to families affected by ALS. Please consider supporting me on this journey by 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.
