Help me raise money to find a cure for ALS!

July 2019 my dad, Tony Dallas, was diagnosed with ALS after 6 months of testing. When I was a little girl I thought my dad could do absolutely anything. I thought he was the strongest, smartest, most giving man in the whole world - and nothing could stop him. Now, as an adult, all my childhood thoughts have been confirmed. Dad is without a doubt the most capable man I will ever know.
The Walk to Defeat ALS raises funds to spread awareness of the urgency to find treatments and a cure, as well as funds research. So thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for donating to this cause.
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.
