Philadelphia ALS United Walk Presented by Hatfield

Fast N' Furious

Thank you for supporting team Fast N' Furious for this year's ALS United Walk to honor, Pete LaMaina! The ALS United Walk raises funds for local patient care programs and to spread awareness of the urgency to find treatments and a cure.


Please consider walking with us on November 9 @ 10am in your RACE GEAR (!) or donating to our team! With your help, we will be able to make a difference in the lives of people affected by this disease. 


Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive, fatal neuromuscular disease that slowly robs the body of its ability to walk, speak, swallow and breathe. The life expectancy of a person with ALS averages 2 to 5 years from the time of diagnosis. ALS can strike anyone, and presently there is no known cause or cure.
 
That's why I'm walking. To change the statistics. To bring help and hope to those living with the disease. To ensure that no one ever hears the words: "You have ALS" again. 
 
The past two years have brought incredible advancements in ALS research, expanded access to care for people living with ALS, and enabled legislation that impacts the quality of life of people with ALS and their families. 
 
But we can't stop now. The key to a cure begins with you.
