We met our goal of $350,000 for the 2022 Greater Sacramento Walk to Defeat ALS! An amazing time was had by the hundreds of participants who raised funds and awareness for ALS. Click here to learn more.
Whatever It Takes
The Whatever It Takes campaign is a rallying call to everyone in the ALS community to join us in helping to realize an audacious but achievable goal of making ALS a livable disease. To meet these ambitions will require us to think outside of what we've done so far, push aside boundaries and barriers and do whatever it takes.
