OUR ALS HERO’S STORY
Russ braved every second as his body began to change throughout this disease. However challenging his journey was, the light that came from Russ never diminished. Hope will last through our darkest times and the love of our family and friends will stay with us forever.
WHAT IS ALS?
ALS, or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. ALS is an always-fatal neurodegenerative disease in which a person’s brain loses connection with the muscles. People with ALS lose their ability to walk, talk, eat, and eventually breathe. The Rocky Mountain Chapter supports people living with ALS and their loved ones through services and education in Colorado, Wyoming and Utah. We leave no stone unturned in search for the cure of this progressive neurodegenerative disease.
DONATE
Because there is no known cause or cure for ALS, there is an urgency for more research and financial support. Your donation today will help provide much needed services, which can be incredibly expensive and hard to obtain. The estimated out-of-pocket cost for the care of a person living with ALS is over $250,000. Visit golf4russ.com to register for this years Russ Critchfield Golf Against ALS Scramble.
