Walk ALS Utah: Mr. Jason L Fowles - ALS United Rocky Mountain

Thank you for all of your support with the past walks. Many of you know that my family and many families at Ken Garff including Crawford Lindsey and Jeff Lots have a long history with ALS. With all of your love and support in prior years we have had some of the best walks ever and together we can fight this disease!! Please join our KEN GARFF team by clicking the "Join Team" link at the top of the page and walk with us on September 27th at Sugar House Park. With your Donation we will change the lives of those living with ALS. If you join our team and donate at least 90.00 you will earn a great tee shirt showing your support. NATE WADE SUBARU has once again committed to match all donations this year.

Even if you can't join us on September 27th please use the "DONATE NOW" link on the bottom of the page to make a donation. ALL donations stay here locally to help support the 444 current patients we serve and support the equipment loan program which we currently have 2200 pieces on loan. Every 90 min someone is diagnosed with ALS events like this will solve this disease.

Always remember to get out and walk, run, or cycle and remember those that cannot.

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. ALS can strike anyone, and presently there is no known cause or cure.

That's why I'm walking. To change the statistics. To bring help and hope to those living with the disease. To ensure that no one ever hears the words: You Have ALS again.

The past two years have brought incredible advancements in ALS research, expanded access to care for people living with ALS, and enabled legislation that impacts the quality of life of people with ALS and their families.

But, we can't stop now. The key to a cure begins with you.

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 this disease.
