I need your help. I'm participating in the ALS Association's CEO Soak to raise critical funds and awareness to help fight back against this disease. Members of the CCHS Boys Basketball coaching staff and team have stepped up and volunteered to participate along with me! Inspired by the Ice Bucket Challenge, our team of coaches and players is going to GET SOAKED at our summer basketball camp the week of July 22 as a way to show our support in the fight against ALS. The first $250 raised gets a bucket of ice water dumped on Coach Hunt - money above and beyond that gets additional buckets dumped on other coaches and players!  We are also participating in the Wally Seaver Tournament at the end of July. This tournament helps to further raise funds for ALS research.

People with ALS can go from perfectly healthy to quickly being unable to move, swallow, or breathe. It can strike anyone at any time and there is no cure. I witnessed this first hand as one of my very best friends lost his father to ALS.

The ALS Association is the only national nonprofit organization fighting ALS on every front. Through your gift to the CEO Soak, you help us to continue providing hope and help to those in our community living with ALS and their caregivers, while aggressively searching for new treatments and a cure.

I am going to do WHATEVER IT TAKES to help the ALS Association make ALS a livable disease, and I'm asking for your help. Please donate to our fundraising page so you also can help fight this terrible disease.

ABOUT ALS 

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive, fatal neuromuscular disease that slowly robs the body of its ability to walk, speak, swallow and breathe. The life expectancy of a person with ALS averages 2 to 5 years from the time of diagnosis.

ALS can strike anyone. Presently there is no known cause of the disease, yet it still costs loved ones an average of $250,000 a year to provide the care people living with ALS and their families need. Every 90 minutes, someone is diagnosed with ALS, and every 90 minutes someone dies from it. These facts are why we need you to help make a splash in the fight against ALS today.
