2024 Walk ALS Southern Oregon

We Are SHARP!

On Saturday, April 27, 2024, I, Claire Sharp, will walk along with anyone who wishes to join me to make up my team We Are SHARP! in support of Walk ALS, sponsored by the Northwest ALS.  Please join me!

 

Since my first ALS Walk last year, I’m pleased to say I have enjoyed another year with my husband Rick, our wonderful children, grandchildren and great grandchildren as well as our precious friends.  We cherish every moment we can spend with the people we love!

Thank you for helping us reach our fundraising goal! Together we can make a difference in the lives of those affected by ALS. Our team is committed to raising money to support people in our community with ALS and spread awareness of the urgency to find treatments and a cure. Please consider joining our team in the Walk ALS or choose a team member from the list and donate to our cause. 
 
WHY WE NEED YOUR HELP 
 
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. 
 
That’s why we’re participating in the Walk ALS. To bring hope. To raise awareness. To provide resources and services to families free of charge. To help uncover the mystery of ALS and find treatments and cures to end ALS. Will you join us? 
 
ABOUT ALS 
 
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. Presently there is no known cause of the disease, yet it still costs loved ones an average of $250,000 a year to provide the care people living with ALS and their families need. Join the movement to provide help and hope today!
