I appreciate your consideration of supporting VCF's Halfway to Christmas walk/run event, which donations in-kind and monetary donations will help those living with ALS and The ALS Association. Each year, The ALS Association is honored and proud to provide free care and support to more than 1,000 individuals and families affected by this terrible disease in the Mid-Atlantic, including more than 450 in Virginia.
As the country's leading organization in the fight against ALS, we rely on the support of our communities to help us continue and expand our services, and we are grateful for every supporter.
Last year we expanded our community fundraising efforts and were excited to support VCF's Halfway to Christmas ALS walk/run, scheduled for Sunday, June 25. There is a lofty goal to raise over $100,000, and we hope to make this an annual event.
Can we count on you to donate today or raise $90.00 (every 90 minutes in the US, a person gets ALS or dies) or more? If you elect to raise money from family and friends, ask them to sponsor $18.00 for each mile you or run and commit to the 5 miles on June 25, 2023
Thank you again for your past support and consideration.
Sincerely,
Amelia Atwill
