Tim Smit's War on ALS

Surrender is not a Ranger Word...Though I be the lone survivor!

Thank you for helping us with this fight on ALS. The horrific disease has, is, and will attack someone you know. WE need to fight this war now. Thank you for helping us! My dedication to this is for Jon, his family and my true inspiration - Carole Steenson.

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

Blazeman Foundation for ALS Mission Statement:
1.) Raise awareness about ALS by leveraging the energy and compassion of the multi-sport community and
2.) Raise funds to find a cure for ALS. "so others may live."

"Since 1869, twenty one plus million people have suffered and then died from ALS." There have been no survivors.
"Believe...Pick a stronger word than Hope...Cure" -blazeman. We strive to hear the words, "I AM A ALS SURVIVOR."

Is the light we can see in the sky one of those which will presently be extinguished? The ideal is terrifying to behold... brilliant but threatened on all sides by the dark forces that surround it: nevertheless, no more in danger than a star in the jaws of the clouds." — Victor Hugo Congrats on another race and thanks again, kid, for all you've taught me."
