Thank you for helping us reach our Walk ALS Denver fundraising goal! This is an exciting opportunity for us to work together to support those affected by Lou Gehrig's Disease (ALS) and to spread awareness of the urgency to find treatments and a cure. 

Our walk is in honor of Natalia Hanks who passed away on September 29, 2013 after a 3-year battle against ALS.  Being of Ukrainian heritage, she prided herself in being a strong "Ukrainian Warrior," hence the name of our team.  

Please consider walking with us or sponsoring our team. With your help, we will be able to make a difference in the lives of people affected by this disease.  We encourage you get your friends, family, neighbors and coworkers involved in this annual fundraiser! 

The Denver walk is on Sunday, October 6th at Sloan's Lake Park in the South Central area.  Our goal is to raise $2,500 before the walk!  All are welcome to join,  the 2.6 mile walk which starts at 9am check-in, 9:45 ceremony, 10am walk start)

THANK YOU so much for your support!!  Every gift truly helps.  Gifts are 100% tax-deductible.

Why We Need Your Help:
Often referred to as Lou Gehrig's Disease, 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 an ALS patient 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.  This crippling disease can strike anyone. Presently there is no known cause of the disease though support is bringing researchers closer to an answer. In the mean time it costs an average of $200,000 a year to provide the care ALS patients need. Please help make a difference and donate or join a walk today. 

Thank you again!
