The ALS Association North Carolina Chapter

The ALS Association (National Office and the North Carolina Chapter) operates under a shared mission: To discover treatments and a cure for ALS, and to serve, advocate for, and empower people affected by ALS to live their lives to the fullest.

We work together to accomplish our mission. Our accomplishments are made possible by the generosity of others. From the smallest donation to the largest gift, donors touch the ALS community with hope for the future.

The ALS Association is the only national not-for-profit health organization dedicated solely to the fight against ALS. We cover all the bases — research, patient and community services, public education and advocacy — in providing help and hope to those facing the disease.
