From the Organizer
This event is an ALS 3K walk/run and health fair held as a fundraiser. Its purpose is to raise awareness about ALS and advocate for a cure. Proceeds from the event will help support individuals living with ALS by providing assistance with medications, equipment, caregiving, and respite services.
Attendees will have access to valuable information on ALS and nutrition, along with activities such as sessions with a life coach, face painting, food trucks, and a little Zumba. Our goal is to make a meaningful impact in the community by increasing awareness and providing education about ALS.
