Move for ALS - 3600 miles, 2 bikes, 1 cause
Augustin Quancard says it best: "ALS is a terrible disease: no one deserves to suffer it. But with your help I believe we can make a significant impact on the search to find a cure."
That's why events like Move For ALS are so important. These are just two guys who have decided to make a difference by cycling across the United States while raising money for a cure and awareness of this disease.
The journey starts on May 15 but you don't have to wait until then to show them you support what they're doing. Go to www.moveforals.com to learn more about them, Tony Judt (the inspiration for the ride) and to lend your support - either moral or monetary.

Thanks for your support!
Thank you to everyone who contacted their Representative to help increase funding for the National ALS Registry.
According to Kristy Koon with the ALS Association, thanks to your outreach, nearly 40 Representatives signed the letter to the House Appropriations Committee urging them to increase funding for the Registry. That's 10 more Representatives than last year, a year in which Congress increased funding for the Registry by 20%! Your outreach is making a difference!
