On June 14, I will be participating in the ALS Canada Walk to End ALS. I am walking in memory of my father who was diagnosed and passed away from ALS. Following my dad's diagnosis, my family received incredible support from ALS Canada. Now more than ever, the ALS community needs support to provide hope and help to families affected by ALS. That’s why we're joining thousands of others, to “walk” in celebration of hope and a world free of ALS. Please consider supporting and 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 services throughout Ontario. This includes support groups, virtual programming, and information resources, which are all critical in improving the quality of life for people living with and affected by ALS.

Join our team in making a difference. Please consider donating to our fundraising page as we work toward a world free of ALS.

United, we are stronger together!
