Team Kochanek
Roll for the Blazeman!!
I am raising money for this team for two reasons. The first is to end ALS. I work with people on a daily basis that have ALS and there needs to be more effort to find a cure. The second reason is that Jon was a best friend and I had the pleasure of growing up with him from grade school on. Jon inspired me and I can only continue to spread the word that he started. Please help me raise money in Jon's honor and win the war on ALS. Thank you, Brian Kochanek
Despite 21 million people dying from ALS since 1869, there remains still no meaningful treatment or cure for this disease. Jon and ALS patients everywhere are basically offered the same treatment options as Lou Gehrig in 1939. Without raising awareness and funding, ALS will not receive the research efforts necessary to find a cure and will continue to strike down every person who is diagnosed with ALS.

"People do not follow titles, they follow courage. If you will just lead them onto the battlefield, they will follow you and so will I, unite us... unite the clans." - Braveheart

Lyn Lester $50.00 ""If I should die and leave you here a while, be not like others, sore undone, who keep long vigil by the silent dust. For my sake turn again to life and smile, nerving thy heart and trembling hand to do that which will comfort other souls than thine. Complete these dear unfinished tasks of mine, and I, perchance, may therein comfort you." - Mary Lee Hall You are truly keeping Blazemans efforts alive, Brian, and that is the best tribute you can pay to your brave friend. Good luck with meeting your goal. "
