Help support ALS Research and Chandler's fight against it as I prepare to run the Grand Teton Half Marathon! Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, leading to a loss of muscle control and currently has no cure. This past August, my brother-in-law Chandler, at just 28 years old, was diagnosed with ALS and since then our family's world has been turned upside down.
ALS is a rare and largely under studied disease, especially for someone so young, so I want to do my part to try and provide hope for not only my family but future families impacted by this disease by raising funds so scientists can continue to study the disease and have the opportunity to develop improved treatments, therapies, and ultimately a cure.
While many of you may not know Chandler, it would mean the world to our family if you could support him in whatever way you are able to. He and his wife, Peri, are the most positive people you could ever have the pleasure to know. They have faced this devastating challenge head on and deserve all the support and prays in the world to continue to face this journey with strength, support, and hope. If you would like to learn more about Chandler's personal story feel free to checkout these resources set up by our family: CaringBridge & GoFundMe .
Donations made on this page will go towards a charities that fund ongoing research for ALS and I have until May 24th, 2025 to reach my fundraising goal. I would appreciate any donations you can make to support this mission and raise awareness for ALS.
