IT IS NO WALK IN THE PARK TO HAVE ALS

Winnipeg walks for ALS

Saturday, June 2, at Assiniboine Park

Registration: 9:00 a.m. Walk: 10:00 a.m.

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a fatal, rapidly progressive neuromuscular disease that currently affects between 2,500 and 3,000 Canadians, more than 250 of which live right here in Manitoba. Money raised in the Walk for ALS not only goes towards research to find a cure for ALS, it also helps to provide support services to families affected by ALS.

The mission of the ALS Society of Manitoba is one of HOPE, to Help Our People affected by ALS Every way we can. To do this we need your support. So come out and join our Walk, either in Winnipeg, or one of our rural Walks. Do your part in helping, not only to find a cure, but to help persons living with the effects of ALS to realize their full potential in a society that respects their rights and dignity.

The Walk for ALS is happening all across Canada this summer. Winnipeg’s walk is a family and pet (on leash) friendly event that includes music, clowns, face painters and much, much more. Don’t miss your chance to support this very worthy cause while having a great time of family fun. We look forward to seeing you there.“What Would You Do, While You Still Could?”To register or for more information call:
