Our annual event, held on January 23, 2021, is our most beloved, anticipated, and important event of the year to support our critical research and care.  While the global pandemic has canceled most things, unfortunately, it did not cancel ALS.  We will not be able to gather together but with your support, we will be together in spirit, side by side, as we always have been, in the fight against ALS.  All funds raised through donations, tickets sales, sponsorships, and all fundraising for the Snow Ball will help to further our united ALS research and care. 

Quite simply, especially this year, we can't do what we do without your support.   Thank you for being by our side - safely, from afar.

FREE FOR pALS! 

If you are living with ALS, you and your caregiver are invited to attend our gala with full access to our pre and post event activities that evening free of charge!  You inspire us every single day and we'd be honored to have you virtually by our side always and at our most cherished night of the year.  Please email us at: [email protected] so we can get you registered.

We are so excited about our Snow Ball pre- and post-show fun!  Exclusively for pALS and their cALS, sponsors, and those who have purchased full-price tickets - Get ready to have some fun and kick off the gala with a special message from Lenny Clarke, a how-to demonstration with Celebrity Chef Joe Gatto and his children of TV's "From Scratch", cocktail mixology with Jake & Joey Gosnell of The Mixers, and the music one of Boston's favorite band: DEVRI!  We couldn't be more grateful to have these amazing men with us at our most important and beloved event of the year! 

Hear the latest from members of our research and care teams about the inspiring research that's under way and how we are working to help improve the quality of life for those impacted by ALS now.

The main program will also include very special appearances by those we hold closest to our hearts - courageous individuals living with ALS who inspire us daily and for whom we are working our hardest . We will also be highlighting some of the incredible silver linings that we have found during this very challenging year!

THE ALS ONE SNOW BALL VIRTUAL FACES OF ALS TRIBUTE WALL

Every year at our in-person gala, we display our FACES OF ALS gallery - submission based photos of courageous individuals who are currently living with, or who have lost their battle with, ALS.  We aren't letting the virtual nature of our event stop us from highlighting these incredible faces of those who inspire us every single day.  If you would like us to add your loved one to our virtual gallery below, please submit your picture to [email protected] by Thursday, January 21st.  After all, they are why we're here and why we do what we do.  Forever in our hearts, your hearts, and on our minds. Photos need to be submitted by January 21st to be included but all are in our hearts.

SPONSORSHIPS

Sponsorships are key to the fundraising success of our most celebrated and important evening of the year. Funds raised directly support our unprecedented partnership and are the foundation by which we are able to further their work throughout the year. Without proper funding, we simply cannot do what we do.  We are pleased to offer a vast selection of sponsorships that have been carefully designed to suit the varying budgets of corporations, foundations, and families who would like to support this special evening.  We hope you'll find the perfect one for you.  SPONSORSHIPS PURCHASED PRIOR TO JANUARY 22ND will be included in the live program.
