Every Dollar Gets Us Closer to the Cure

Fundraisers don't have to be major, time-consuming events. They don't have to raise thousands of dollars (though that would be delightful). They don't have to involve great numbers of people. They just need to raise some money for ALS research. Whether it's $50, $500, or $5,000 ... it all adds up.
