Let’s Cure ALS!!
Dear Friends,
This year we will once again be walking for ALS as Gail’s Gladiators in memory of our sister/sister-in-law/aunt, Gail. It is hard to believe that it has been eight years since we started our walking and fundraising, but it is encouraging to see the impact these funds have had on supporting those with ALS, including families and loved ones. Also encouraging is the increased research taking place with the first new drugs approved in almost 25 years. There is still no cure for ALS but with your support and our perseverance, that too can change. Here is how your donations are used.
- 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!
with thanks,
Gails Gladiators 💜
