Host Your Own Event

To maintain our support of 90% of the services provided at the MDA/ALS Center of Hope and the work of the Neuromuscular Research Laboratory - both at Drexel University College of Medicine - the ALS Hope Foundation relies on generous contributions from our community of ALS activists. Typically, our funding sources include personal donations and the proceeds from events our friends host on our behalf.

If you would like to host an event to benefit the ALS Hope Foundation, we are here to help! To get started, please download our Third Party Planning Guide. Here, you will find event ideas, fundraising tips, and sample checklists, and more.
