Click here to read I AM ALS’ statement on the death of Eric Dane on Feb. 19, 2026.
For every $1 you donate, over $400 in federal funding is unlocked for research and potential therapy access.
Every action. Every story. Every dollar. It all moves us closer to a cure for ALS.
I AM ALS is proud to announce Push for Progress: a bold three-year campaign raising money to accelerate ALS research, expand access to promising therapies, and secure more than $1 billion in critical federal funding for ALS research.
We’re ending ALS. We hope you’ll join us, because the return on our collective investment will be to secure the single largest pot of ALS research funding in history.
ALS isn’t untreatable—it’s underfunded. And we refuse to stop pushing until there’s a cure.
Why Now?
ALS is at a tipping point. New therapies are within reach, but thousands of people living with ALS will lose access to them unless we take action.
The first critical milestone of Push for Progress is a unique and powerful window of opportunity that will close in just a few months—by September of this year. ACT for ALS, a law that transformed the landscape for people living with this disease, is up for renewal. If it expires, we risk losing:
- Access to therapies for thousands of people
- Hundreds of millions in funding dedicated for ALS
- A research infrastructure that’s been painstakingly built up to deliver a cure
Our allies in Congress and the new Administration have shown they are ready to support ALS, but our work is far from done. Push with us by donating above, or follow the links below – EVERY action moves us closer to a world without ALS.
