Thank you for joining Team Tony to help us reach our fund raising goal! Together we can make a difference in the lives of those affected by ALS. Our team is committed to raising money to support the potentially life saving research on ALS and spread awareness of the urgency to find treatment and a cure. Your support is greatly appreciated as together we join the fight against this horrible disease. Furries unite! Fight On!
Why We Need Your Help
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.
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.
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!
We continue the legacy of this team in the fight against ALS to honor the memory of our dear friend "Dogbomb" Tony Barrett. In his words:
"Every day is a gift and means so much to me.
Even the little things seem very important now.
ALS has no known cause, no treatment, and no cure.
There is no hope.
Unless you help."
Help us be a guiding light to pave the way to a better future. We promise there will be hugs and laughs!
