This September, I'll be participating in Dave's Race 8 to raise money for Racing for ALS, Inc., an organization dedicated to supporting individuals and families affected by Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), often known as Lou Gehrig's Disease.
ALS is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that attacks the nerve cells responsible for voluntary muscle movement. Over time, people with ALS lose the ability to walk, speak, eat, and eventually breathe independently. Despite decades of research, ALS currently has no cure.
Funds raised through Racing for ALS help support critical research aimed at finding better treatments and ultimately a cure, while also helping provide resources and support for those living with the disease today.
Every donation, no matter the size, helps make a difference. Thank you for supporting this incredible cause and helping us accelerate the fight against ALS.
About your donation - 100% of all donations for Dave's Race will support 3 different ways to help the ALS community via Dave's Triple Target Fund!
------------------------
About Racing for ALS! - Racing For ALS started shortly after David Lloyd was diagnosed with ALS in October of 2017 by David and his brother Scott as a way to go make memories and have fun. Through the Lord's intervention that brought about an amazing team or racers, it has become so much more! Coming into the 2025 season, Racing for ALS has raised over $1,800,000 in funds that have had a 100% pass through rate to fund ALS research and Assistance dollars for PALS (Persons with ALS). The funds raised for this event will be the same, in that Racing for ALS will convey all event, merchandise and general donation proceeds to three worthy beneficiaries via its Triple Target Funding initiative started on October 1, 2023, in the following proportions:
45% to ALS TDI
10% to Duke Neurology
45% to our 2 Racing for ALS Patient Assistance Funds
Triple Target Funding affords key advantages over event specific beneficiary designations:
Year-round beneficiary financial support
Year-round beneficiary engagement, awareness building and cross promotion efforts
Targets ALS in three ways
Improved donor clarity
Streamlined accounting
Thank you again for supporting our mission to help #ENDALS!
