Dear family and friends,

We will be participating in the ALS Canada Walk to End ALS, in memory of Bernie. 

Now more than ever, the ALS community needs our support to provide hope and help to families affected by ALS. We were helped so much by ALS Canada by receiving the necessary equipment, family and caregiver support.

Please consider supporting Bernie’s Awesome League of Schoutsens and donating towards this important cause. Love and hugs Lorraine ❤️

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!
