Dear Angel Fund Family,
We've been busy with many events over the past few months that have helped create awareness for ALS and raise much need funds for research.
Whether it was kicking a soccer ball, walking or running a few miles, chuckling at a comedy night or "cheering" on a successful event, the support from thousands of you has been amazing! We're not finished yet! The Annual Gala is coming up, as is the Jimmie Neil Softball Game, The Walk of Hope for ALS, 100 Innings of Baseball, a night at Bella Luna and golf tournaments - all to benefit ALS research.
With the help of our supporters, we have given millions of dollars to Dr. Brown's ALS research. You can check out the latest research information that The Angel Fund has helped to fund. Please support one (or all) by sponsoring or attending the upcoming events. For those whose have supported the last few events and have donated to The Angel Fund, we are truly grateful for your support and look forward to seeing you soon. Sincerely, Chief Development Officer Help us turn hope into reality!
