'The energy in the Sault has been fabulous,' says ALS Society of Canada CEO Tammy Moore, who joined hundreds of supporters at the Roberta Bondar Pavilion on Sunday for this year’s ‘Walk to End ALS’
A few raindrops weren’t going to dampen the spirits of the hundreds who gathered at the Roberta Bondar Pavilion on Sunday in support of this year’s ‘Walk to End ALS.’
When Pozzebon and his colleagues formed the ‘Steady Freddie’s Warriors’ team in the spring, the father of two initially set a fundraising goal of $10,000. Forty per cent of the proceeds raised from the walk are directed to the national ALS Canada Research Program, while 60 per cent are used to provide community-based support to people and families living with ALS.
