The ALS Association is looking for some enthusiastic people to volunteer for the Walk to Defeat ALS. We need volunteers to help set up the site and route, register participants, hand out food, sell merchandise, paint faces, and take photographs.
As a thank you for volunteering, you’ll receive a volunteer t-shirt, snacks, and beverages. More importantly, you’ll be an integral part of an event that supports ALS research and helps fund the equipment and services we offer free of charge to people living with ALS and their families.

What is ALS?
ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) is a degenerative disease of the central nervous system. ALS results in the progressive weakness of voluntary muscles which often leads to total paralysis. There is no known cause or cure for ALS. People with ALS typically live between two and five years after being diagnosed.
