Registration and Participant Center FAQs

How do I register?
Have you ever participated in an ALS Chapter event in the past? If you answered YES, then you have a username and password for our website! We recommend logging in before you register to make the process easy for you! The system will remember you and all of your past information, including edits to your personal pages. Select 'Register' on the home page to begin.

What are the costs involved, and what do they provide?
There is no upfront fee to participate in the ALS NorCal 90, however, all participants are asked to raise a minimum of $500 to make this event a true team effort and help support families living with ALS in our community.

Reaching the $500 minimum should be done by the end of ALS Awareness Month (May 31st). Chapter staff are here to help you! 

Team FAQs

Are there additional charges to have a team?
No, but we ask each team member to work toward raising $500 in collected pledges from friends and family.

How many members must I have to form a team?
A team can be two people, twenty people, or more!

As a team captain or member of a team, can I raise all the money and then distribute it to other members of my team?
We strongly discourage this. For many people, participating is a challenge. Whether it’s the physical challenge or the effort it takes to reach a fundraising goal, both components are part of the NorCal 90 experience. Having every participant raise funds makes charity events special. Everyone participating will have something in common - they provided hope to people living with ALS.
