For those of you who knew Kristen Brewer you knew she fought one heck of a fight against ALS for at least 5 years. She didn't let ALS stop her from enjoying her life with her family and friends and she NEVER lost faith! On June 22, STL is having an ALS Walk and we'd love for you to join our team called Kristen's Crew! All proceeds will go to the ALS Association. There will be Kristen's Crew team shirts to order, but those are not finalized yet. If you have any questions, please reach out. Let's walk together in memory of Kris and her fight against ALS. Kristen is missed every day ❤
Thank you for helping us reach our fundraising goal!
WHY WE NEED YOUR HELP
Every 90 minutes a person in this country is diagnosed with ALS and every 90 minutes another person will lose their battle against this disease. ALS occurs throughout the world with no racial, ethnic, or socioeconomic boundaries.
That’s why we’re participating in the Walk to Defeat ALS. To bring hope. To raise awareness. To provide resources and services to families free of charge. To help unlock the mystery of ALS and find the key to treatments a cure. Will you join us?
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. Join the movement to provide help and hope today!
