Walk for ALS Ethical Fundraising

You can provide support to people living with ALS through a fundraising event supporting the ALS Society of Ontario. Golf tournaments, garage sales, family or company celebrations are just a few ideas for holding a fundraising event.
 

Working with the ALS Society of Ontario:
 

The ALS Society of Ontario can provide your event with the following:

  • A representative of the ALS Society of Ontario to attend (participate or speak) at your event.
  • As appropriate, a representative of the ALS Society of Ontario to participate in a cheque presentation at your event.
  • ALS brochures and fact sheets
  • A letter in support of the event (if required).
  • Event with link advertised in our events calendar on www.alsont.ca
  • Other materials such as balloons, magnets, etc.

Before you choose the type of event, please take the time to review our Event Guidelines. These guidelines outline the ALS Society of Ontario's policies around logo usage, licences, etc.
