On Saturday, Jun 14, 2025, I am participating with my family in The 2025 ALS United Mid-Atlantic Jersey Shore Ride to Defeat ALS. Each year, the Greater Philadelphia Chapter supports over 1,200 people with ALS throughout eastern and central Pennsylvania, central and southern New Jersey, and all of Delaware.

I really appreciate everyones support over the many years that I have been an active advocate with my family in ALS awareness and fundraising and have rode is this bike Ride for over 10years trying to make an impact to Defeat ALS. 

ALS is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that slowly robs the body of its ability to walk, speak, swallow, and breathe. Every 90 minutes, another person in this country is diagnosed with the disease.

There is currently NO cure. And that’s just unacceptable.  ALS SUCKS!

So it’s why I’m riding– for those who can’t. My goal for this event is $1,000 and I hope you’ll help me reach it.

Any amount you feel comfortable giving is appreciated; every dollar makes a difference. With your support, we can make a positive impact today for everyone living with ALS tomorrow.

Sincerely,

Mr. John Florio
