ALS Association Receives AWG Cares Award Grant

Recently, AWG Cares provided a grant in the amount of $3,000 to the ALS Association. The grant request was submitted by Bonnie Gail Ebben, AWG Great Lakes Division Support Center employee.

ALS Association is the world’s leading organization, made up of volunteers who are living with ALS loved ones, caregivers, advocates, and dedicated staff. Their goal is to make ALS livable for everyone, everywhere, until a cure is found. ALS is a progressive disease in which a person’s brain loses connection with the muscles, slowly taking away their ability to walk, talk, eat and eventually breathe. On the ground in all 50 states, the ALS Association is providing support for people living with ALS and their loved ones while funding the most promising ALS research in the world. They are also leading local and national advocacy efforts to deliver more funding for ALS research and better policies for those impacted by the disease. Their commitment is that every person living with ALS, regardless of where they live, should be able to access high-quality care and effective treatments.

Thank you, Bonnie, for donating to AWG Cares and submitting this grant request!
