A 43 year old man was recently diagnosed with ALS. Because of his ALS, this man is physically unable to do things so his wife is left to take care of her husband, their two children (ages one and six), and their house all while working full time.
Someone with two hours a week to help clean and organize would make an incredible difference to this family. It would lessen their stress and allow the family to spend quality time together.
This opportunity is part of our family assistance program. Find out why this program rocks and how you can be a part of it by visiting our website [tinyurl.com/ALS-FAP] or by contacting Laura Winterstein, volunteer coordinator, at 888-672-0484 or laura@alsmn.org.
