Thank you for helping me reach my Walk to Defeat ALS® fundraising goal! This is a cause near and dear to my heart because my husband, John, was diagnosed with ALS in December 2018. This will be the 5th year we will participate in the ALS Houston Walk. Thank you for your continued support.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neuromuscular disease that slowly impacts the ability to walk, speak, swallow and breathe. ALS can strike anyone, and presently there is no known cause or cure.

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.

That’s why I’m walking. 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.
