17th Annual Hope Walks for ALS Family Day

I lost my best friend, my father, Michael G. Pierson, on July 20, 2022. For more than four years prior to that, he was fully aware as ALS took away his ability to move, speak, eat, and breathe. Though he was given a 100% fatal diagnosis - and he accepted that with grace and courage that I still cannot fathom - he fought in every way he could, and kept the faith. It was important to him to raise awareness of this disease, and participate in research and fundraising that will, one day, end it for good.

In his name, in honor of his wonderful life and legacy, I will keep fighting, and never lose hope.

“Hope is not wishful thinking. Hope is the audacity to believe that after everything you have been through, there is more ahead of you.” – Morgan Harper Nichols

Please help us be that hope for people with ALS and their loved ones by giving to the 17th Annual Hope Walks for ALS event. Every dollar raised directly supports the MDA/ALS Center of Hope at Temple University Hospital, a multidisciplinary clinic that ensures people with ALS have access to high-quality, compassionate care. The funds also go toward research and education programs offered by the ALS Hope Foundation. Each contribution has a huge impact on the lives of people with ALS.

Thank you for helping keep Hope on the Horizon!
