Applications for funding contain valuable intellectual property which, if used inappropriately by a reviewer or observer of the peer review process, could damage the competitiveness of the applicant(s), or prevent exploitation of the intellectual property, and could render ALS Canada and Brain Canada vulnerable to legal action.

As we bid farewell to 2023, we want to take a moment to celebrate YOU. Your dedication throughout this month, and indeed the entire year, has been nothing short of inspirational.

A letter from Tammy Moore, ALS Canada’s Chief Executive Officer

The ALS Society of Canada (ALS Canada) and the Kevin Daly Bursary Fund are pleased to announce the recipients of the 2023 ALS Canada Kevin Daly Bursary, granted to post-secondary students who share a personal connection to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Toronto, ON – In partnership with the friends and colleagues of ALS community member Kevin Daly, the ALS Society of Canada (ALS Canada) is pleased to announce that applications are now open for the first year of the ALS Canada Kevin Daly Bursary.

ALS Awareness Month is drawing to a close, but our efforts to create a future without ALS continue year-round. Driven by the ALS community, we look to create connection and impact, sharing the progress towards our mission along the way.

In late 2018, Facebook began offering the option for Canadians to create fundraisers for nonprofit organizations or for personal causes. Since then many of you have reached out to us with questions about how these giving options can be used to support ALS Canada. Keep reading….

2018 was a momentous year for the ALS community. Discoveries were made that advance our understanding of the disease, clinical trials showed encouraging results, and the first therapy in over 20 years was approved for use in Canada for people living with ALS.

In 2014, the Ice Bucket Challenge gave hope to people and families living with ALS – hope that one day there would be a cure for this terminal disease. With the Ice Bucket Challenge came an immense responsibility to invest donor dollars with care and consideration, and as a result, ALS Canada’s investments have helped to make great strides in the areas of research and awareness.

The ALS Society of Canada is part of a passionate and compassionate community united in our deep desire to improve the lives of people living with ALS and to make ALS a treatable, not terminal disease. We know that it takes ALL OF US—donors, volunteers, people living with ALS, caregivers, researchers, and advocates—to make a difference.
