On Sat Jun 07/25 - myself (Barbara - from NC's HWAS dept)  &  my walkathon buddies (Julie - from NR Mental Health), and Tank (the Italian Mastiff) will be participating in the ALS Canada Walk to End ALS, as part of 'TEAM NC - Pam's posse', specifically in support NC's very own Pam Skinner (VP of College Operations) as we "walk” in celebration of hope and a world free of ALS.   Please consider supporting us by donating towards this important cause.  Your support will help to:

• 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.
• 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.
  
  

Your support is needed, appeciated, and timely – we are stronger together!
