Cathy Klunk Armstrong's fundraising efforts to fight ALS!

Here is a message I received from Cathy Klunk Armstrong regarding her efforts to raise funds to fight ALS:

Dear Family and Friends,

I recently accepted the challenge of participating in The ALS Central Coast Century. You have the opportunity to “make a difference” by helping to fight ALS or "Lou Gehrig's Disease" in your support of this event.

Often, when someone like Lance Armstrong (no relation) beats cancer or some other disease, a strong advocate is born. The survivor works to help find a cure. He or she volunteers, organizes fundraisers, and gives generously knowing that sharing their gift of a “second chance” will support and benefit their community. But, there are NO survivors of ALS. It is 100% fatal.
Since the average lifespan of an ALS patient is two to five years from diagnosis, there are fewer advocates raising money to help find a cure. That is why I have chosen to be an advocate to help fight this terrible disease.

I am asking you to help by supporting my fund-raising efforts with a donation. Your tax-deductible gift will make a difference in the lives of many! It is faster and easier than ever to support this great cause - you can make your donation online by simply clicking on the link at the bottom of this message. If you would prefer, you can also send your tax-deductible contribution to the address listed below.

To send a donation:

Make all checks payable to: The ALS Association

Mail to: Cathy (Klunk) Armstrong

Any amount, great or small, helps in the fight. I greatly appreciate your support and will keep you posted on my progress.

Kind Regards,
