The
mission of The ALS Association Greater Philadelphia Chapter is to lead the
fight to treat and cure ALS through global research and nationwide advocacy
while also empowering people with Lou Gehrig's Disease and their families to
live fuller lives by providing them with compassionate care and support. The
ALS Association is the only national not-for-profit organization dedicated
solely to the fight against amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. The Greater
Philadelphia Chapter is the largest chapter in the country, providing support
and resources for ALS patients, their families, and caregivers living in the
eastern half of Pennsylvania, southern New Jersey, and Delaware. We are proud
to be the principal charity of the Philadelphia Phillies.
