Our Direct Patient Support program provides essential equipment and resources directly to individuals with ALS. We believe that practical, tangible support can make a significant difference in the daily lives of those affected by ALS.
We work directly with individuals and families to understand their specific needs and provide tailored support. Our process is simple:
Our goal is to provide immediate, practical assistance that improves quality of life and helps individuals with ALS maintain their independence and dignity.
Physical therapy is crucial for individuals with ALS to maintain mobility, manage symptoms, and improve quality of life. Our Physical Therapy Sponsorship program helps cover the cost of therapy sessions for those who need them.
Through generous donations, we're able to sponsor physical therapy sessions for individuals with ALS. Each sponsored session is provided by licensed physical therapists who specialize in neuromuscular conditions.
A single donation of $75 funds one physical therapy session, while larger donations can provide ongoing therapy support for individuals in need.
ALS affects not just individuals, but entire families. Our Family Support program offers resources, counseling, and assistance to help families navigate the challenges of living with ALS.
We recognize the vital role that caregivers play in supporting individuals with ALS. Our program includes specific resources for caregivers, including:
Our goal is to ensure that families have the support they need to navigate the ALS journey together.
Connection is powerful. Our Community Building program creates opportunities for individuals and families affected by ALS to connect, share experiences, and support one another.
We're working to establish ALS Lifeline chapters in communities across the country. These chapters provide local support networks and resources for individuals and families affected by ALS.
By building strong communities, we create networks of support that enhance the well-being of everyone affected by ALS.
Our Equipment Donation Program allows donors to fund specific equipment for individuals with ALS. This direct approach ensures that your donation has an immediate, tangible impact on someone's life.
When you donate to our Equipment Program, you can specify what type of equipment you'd like to fund. We'll match your donation with an individual in need of that specific equipment. You'll receive information about the impact of your donation, including how it's helping someone with ALS.

Our General Support Fund allows us to allocate resources where they're needed most. Your donation to this fund supports all of our programs and services, ensuring that we can provide comprehensive support to individuals and families affected by ALS.
While our targeted donation programs are valuable, general support gives us the flexibility to address emerging needs and ensure that all of our programs are fully funded. Your general donation helps us maintain a comprehensive approach to supporting those affected by ALS.
