The Les Turner ALS Foundation is honored to have numerous community and family fundraising events held on its behalf throughout the year. We'd like to take this opportunity to thank the many families and organizations for their hard work, dedication and perseverance in raising funds and awareness of ALS - we simply couldn't do it without you!
We are here to help!
If you would like more information on how to organize your own event, please contact the Foundation office at (847) 679-3311 or events@lesturnerals.org.
| Sign, Sealed, Delivered: Start a Letter Writing Campaign |
Sometimes the easiest and most effective way to raise awareness or funds is by sharing your own story throughout your community of friends, colleagues and community members. Through a letter writing campaign, essential dollars can be raised to help ensure the continuance of the Foundation’s valuable research and patient care programs – all while educating a new audience about ALS.
Our dedicated event staff can help you with every facet of a letter writing campaign, from stuffing and sealing envelopes to delivering to the Post Office. All we need from you is a picture, a 250-300 word letter and a mailing list.
To learn more on a letter writing campaign, or to begin your own, please contact the Foundation at (847) 679-3311 or events@lesturnerals.org. |
