Silent Auction Items
The ALS Association, Northern New England Chapter
Last year (2010), ALS Association of Northern New England hosted a silent auction to benefit their annual Walk to Defeat ALS. The Walk to Defeat ALS® is The ALS Association’s national signature event and is scheduled to be held at Dorset Park on Sunday, September 25, 2011. For More information about ALS, please contact Amy Coyne (Acoyne@alsanne.org) or visit: www.alsanne.org.
The ALS Association, Northern New England Chapter
The Mission of The ALS Association is clear: 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. Sponsorship and support efforts, like the silent auction at the Lake Champlain Maritime Festival enable our organization to accomplish two imperative goals, one being to support people living with ALS and improve their everyday lives, the other being to raise funds for both research and support. We work with volunteers, friends and families of patients, as well as corporations and businesses to reach and hopefully, surpass our fundraising goals.
- All silent auction proceeds raised will benefit the VT Walk to Defeat ALS
- The VT ALS Walk will take place at the Dorset Park location in South Burlington VT on Sunday, September 25 – Rain or Shine.
