Sponsor Me In The Seaside Board...Walk to D'Feet ALS!

Thank you for your interest in helping me reach my Seaside Board...Walk to D’Feet ALS® fundraising goal! This is an exciting opportunity for us to work together to support those affected by ALS and to spread awareness of the urgency to find treatments and a cure.

This year, I will be proudly walking with over 750 patients, men, women, and children from Ocean and Monmouth Counties in order to raise funds in support of nationally driven cutting-edge ALS research and community-based patient services programs. This year marks the fifth year that The ALS Association, Greater Philadelphia Chapter has been working to fight ALS through the Seaside Board...Walk to D’Feet ALS®. Since this Walk began, over $400,000 has been raised in Ocean and Monmouth Counties.

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. If you choose to walk with me, you will be a part of an exciting, empowering event for patients, family members, friends, companies and organizations across the country; all of whom are walking to support comprehensive patient service programs and leading-edge ALS research.

Whether or not you can walk with me, you can play an essential role by sponsoring me. Both walkers and donors directly impact the lives of those affected by ALS by providing the means to raise awareness and to offer the services needed to treat and defeat this disease. Last year, the Greater Philadelphia Chapter's Walks raised over $1,000,000 proving to be our most successful Walk season to date! This year, we hope to surpass this amount by raising $1.1 million for continued programs and services on a local and national level.

Not only do proceeds from the Walk go to services that improve the day-to-day lives of ALS patients and their loved ones, but the money we fundraise is directed toward programs that look to the future. Promising research indicates that we are getting closer to finding treatment options and scientists are hopeful that a cure will one day be discovered.

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 ALS. I encourage you to get your friends, family, neighbors and coworkers involved!
