We are "Mooving" for a cure of ALS.
Team Adam will walk to defeat ALS on Saturday, June 8th, 2024 in Fargo, North Dakota at Urban Plains Park.
This is the second year that Team Adam has participated in the ALS walk. The first year we raised $7,500 and this year we want to beat that amount. Please consider a donation today to help us reach our goal.
Adam was a young farmer, from Hankinson, ND, who was diagnosed with ALS at the age of 26. Seven Months and seven days after diagnosis, Adam passed away on Christmas Eve 2022. He made the best of his short battle. Adam loved his family, tractors, cattle ranching and farming.
Adam's children William and Kinsley, his family and friends miss him very much.
Let's keep Adam's memory alive.
Help us "Moove" for a cure of ALS and reach our goal.
Thank you for helping me reach my Walk to Defeat ALS fundraising goal! The Walk to Defeat ALS raises funds to support those affected by ALS and to spread awareness of the urgency to find treatments and a cure.
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, and presently there is no known cause or cure.
That’s why I’m walking. To change the statistics. To bring help and hope to those living with the disease. To ensure that no one ever hears the words: “You Have ALS” again.
The past two years have brought incredible advancements in ALS research, expanded access to care for people living with ALS, and enabled legislation that impacts the quality of life of people with ALS and their families.
But, we can’t stop now. The key to a cure begins with you.
Please consider walking with me or sponsoring me. With your help, we will be able to make a difference in the lives of people affected by this disease.
