Hello!

Thank you for visiting our team's Walk ALS Georgia fundraising page. We are looking forward to walking united for a cure on Walk Day and hope you will join us. If you want to walk with us – or support a team member who is walking – you are in the right place!

Brother Benjamin Hopkins has been a member of Federated Free and Accepted Masons, Inc. for years and has held various high-ranking positions in this organization. 
When Brother Hopkins was diagnosed with ALS he did not stop participating in his roles in the organization and for that we decided to support ALS Georgia as a group to support our dear brother.

Every 90 minutes. That’s how often someone learns they’ve been diagnosed with ALS. In that moment, their life is changed forever. And from that moment on, they are left to navigate an unknown future - a future living with ALS. 

Every 90 minutes. That’s how often someone living with ALS loses his battle because there is no cure for this disease.

We are walking so Georgians living with ALS can get the support they need to live a full life post-diagnosis. It costs on average $250,000 a year to provide the care people living with ALS and their families need. Walk ALS Georgia raises money to provide local care services like direct financial support, respite care, transportation services, and equipment loans to help alleviate that cost for families in Georgia.

We are also walking to support research efforts into treatments and a cure so that an ALS diagnosis is not fatal. Until that day, we will walk on. Join us!
