Give to end ALS.
Your gift gets us closer
to a world without ALS.
Fuel the movement.
“I know ALS is hard to look at. But once you’ve seen it, you can’t unsee it. What you do with that feeling—that gut-punch of witnessing someone lose everything but their mind—is up to you. Here’s the truth: ALS is not incurable. The science exists, the tools are on the table. What’s missing? Time and funding.”
-Brian W.
Air Force Veteran living with ALS
Every $1 you give unlocks hundreds of dollars in federal funding for ALS research and therapies.
How? Because it fuels the “most successful patient advocacy movement of the 21st century.” That means your donation drives community momentum to pass key laws, protect and increase research funding, and ensure more people have access to therapies.

Give a gift of stock
You can fuel this patient-led movement—and save on taxes—by donating appreciated assets like stock or mutual funds.
Donating stock is one of the most powerful ways to support I AM ALS and the push for a cure. When you give a gift of stock, you’re investing in a world without ALS, and you’re multiplying your impact.
Here’s how it works:
-
You avoid capital gains tax on the increase in value.
-
You can deduct the full fair market value of the stock on your taxes.
-
We receive the full value of your contribution—allowing us to fuel progress faster.
It’s smart giving with big impact. Reach out to us at give@iamals.org to give a gift of stock or other financial asset.
