Thanks for taking the time to visit MiMi's Tribe!

Your support really means the world to my family. More than you know. 

I’ve signed up for One Dollar Difference for the ALS community because, together, our impact can lead to one day living in a world without ALS. The ALS Association is helping people all over the country living with this disease and pushing closer and closer towards a treatment and a cure every single day.

Now, this is where you and I come in! My fundraising effort is helping keep cutting edge research projects funded and ensuring people living with ALS (like my mom) are getting the proper care and support. Join the movement to cure ALS and put your dollar where it counts and help me reach my goal. Together, we will have a huge impact in the fight against ALS. 

Raising money together means funding local programs & services. For example, being able to restock and expand "loan closets"; launch telemedicine programs (for home-bound patients); and increase patient access to care. Not to mention the money set forth for research in developing new drugs to help provide a treatment. One of which my mom is participating in! 

Can you guess how much money has been raised for The ALS Association this year within West Virginia? None. Zero. I want to make a difference and I hope you will consider helping me! 

ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis) - a little over 6,000 people in the U.S. are diagnosed each year. It is estimated there are more than 20,000 Americans that have the disease at any given time. 60% of that population are men and 93% are caucasian (within the current database). 

The ALS Association's Vision: Create a world without ALS.

The ALS Association's Mission: To discover treatments and a cure for ALS, and to serve, advocate for, and empower people affected by ALS to live their lives to the fullest. 

Thanks so much for helping my fundraiser succeed and supporting The ALS Association and its programs. 

We need more difference makers like you in this world to make it a better place. Please pass the page along to anyone else who is as awesome as you!
