Walk of Hope for ALS goes Virtual
Date/Time
Date(s) - 09/12/2020
11:00 am - 8:00 pm
The Walk of Hope for ALS will be held virtually this year on Saturday, September 12th. With the Covid -19 restrictions in place, and keeping our Angel Fund family safe, we made the decision not to have the physical walk in Wakefield. You can now walk from anywhere in the world!
We still want you to gather family and friends and create your team, social distance and join us virtually as we raise funds for ALS research.
Rich Kennedy and Dr. Robert Brown will be live to kick off for the Walk at 11 a.m. Our walkers will leave their locations and walk the 3.2 miles – the same distance as our walk in Wakefield!
Dr. Brown and his research team need our help to move his research to the next level! Let’s Walk and Step up to Cure ALS®
