Each May, the Les Turner ALS Foundation honors ALS Awareness Month with a series of Tag Day drives. These locally organized fundraising drives can be found at intersections, shopping malls, train stations and other places around the community. This grassroots event is an example of how dedication, ingenuity and volunteer manpower can have an impact many times beyond the original investment. The genius of Tag Days is that it requires little more than a yellow vest, a can for donations, and two hours or more from a willing volunteer. It may not seem like much, but it adds up.
Interested in getting involved in our Tag Days drives? Check out the list of drives below, then contact Liz at (847) 679-3311 or lmelvin@lesturnerals.org to register to volunteer or to find out about how to captain a drive in your own community.
