We are walking in honour of Susan, whose strength, grace, and unwavering spirit continue to inspire us every day.

Susan faced ALS with remarkable courage, meeting each challenge with resilience and a deep love for family, friends, and life itself. Even in the most difficult moments, she remained a source of light, reminding us of what truly matters.

ALS is a devastating disease that takes so much, yet she continued to give so much and show up to life with her all. She will leave behind a legacy of kindness, strength, and connection that will never fade.

We walk not only in remembrance, but in hope for better treatments, for a cure, and for a future where no family has to face ALS.

Thank you for supporting us, for honouring Susan, and for helping us make a difference.

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 home visits and 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.
