ALS (also known as Lou Gehrig's Disease) is a very rare condition with less than 20,000 cases diagnosed per year.  Treatment can help, but there is no cure for this disease.  Treatments also depend on the stage of the disease.  If you or your family have been affected by ALS, you know how debilitating it can be.  Research and therapy is ongoing, and these fundraisers really can help.
