Kyle has been a dear friend of mine since elementary school, and he has grown to be one of my husband’s closest friends as well. He stood by our side in our wedding party, just as my husband did for him on his special day. 

Tragically, my dad lost his battle with ALS just ten days after our wedding, and it breaks my heart to see Kyle’s dad now facing the same devastating diagnosis. I will be walking to honor my dad, Pat, and to support Bob during this challenging time. 

We must push for a treatment—no one should have to endure fight alone 

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 now more than ever – we are stronger together!
