The ALS Canada Walk to End ALS is a community-driven event for people living with or affected by ALS, as well as those who want to help create a world free of ALS.
Whether you attend the Ottawa event or take part virtually, you will join thousands of others across the country coming together to support people affected by ALS.
Join a walk and come together to celebrate and honour the people we have loved and lost to this disease and show support for Canadians and their families living with ALS!
