We Are A Local Organization with National Support!
The ALS Association (National Office and the Georgia Chapter) operates under a shared mission. The ALS Association is the only nationally affiliated not-for-profit health organization dedicated solely to ALS.

The ALS Association empowers people with Lou Gehrig’s Disease and their families to live fuller lives by providing compassionate care and support.
Our programs, services, research and advocacy are made possible by the generosity of others. From the smallest donation to the largest gift, donors touch the ALS community with hope for the future.
