Description

This Walk is a day of joy, hope, celebration, and remembrance for those diagnosed with ALS and their loved ones. Participants have been advocating and fundraising for months in order to build a future where ALS is a livable disease. Participants will join together to walk to remind ALL in the ALS community that they are never alone. Though there is no cure, because of kind and compassionate hearts, research, advocacy, and local care, there is hope for tomorrow.

Our work covers all the bases — research, patient and community services, public education, and advocacy — in providing help, support, and hope to those facing the disease. Our mission at the ALS Association— to discover treatments and a cure for ALS, and to serve, advocate for, and empower people affected by ALS to live their lives to the fullest.

I would like to personally invite YOU to our advocacy community by becoming a sponsor of our Dallas Walk! By becoming a sponsor, there are many great benefits including social media/online recognition, recognition at the event itself, signage, logos on our Walk t-shirts, and more.

In addition, we are collecting gift cards and in-kind items to use as incentive items for our fundraising teams. This would be extremely helpful as we work to raise funds for our cause. Also, any give-back nights or sales percentage donations would be extremely helpful and appreciated for this project.

We at the ALS Association would be grateful for any sponsorship or support in which you would be interested in. It is because of listening ears and open hearts that we can advocate for and empower people affected by ALS to live their lives to the fullest. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions, concerns, or interests. I would love a chance to connect with you!
