On May 31st, Team MacBenny for Carolyn will be participating in the Walk to End ALS here in Ottawa. Now more than ever, Carolyn needs support from all of us. Please show your personal support by joining our Team today, and by walking with Carolyn on May 31st. That’s why we're joining thousands of others, part of a passionate and motivated community, to walk in celebration of hope and a world free of ALS. Please consider joining Team MacBenny for Carolyn on this walk, and also 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. Carolyn has participated in some of these treatment trials.
• Create a better day-to-day reality for people and families living with ALS by providing community-based services throughout Ontario – this includes 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. Carolyn is using some of this equipment today.
