A NOTE REGARDING DONOR ADVISED FUNDS

You can recommend a grant from your donor-advised fund to provide vital help to those we serve and power the search for effective treatments and cures for ALS through the ALS Network. You may choose to make a one-time gift, or to create a recurring monthly or quarterly gift for even more impact.

If you would like to make a gift now through your DAF, simply click this link to find your fund.

Please note, however, that a grant from a DAF cannot be used for anything that benefits you or your family members directly.

This includes:
• Tickets or tables at galas and fundraising dinners
• Auction items, raffles, or anything received in exchange for your donation

Thank you for your understanding.
