Campus leaders will take the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge on Thursday, September 4, at 12:45 p.m. in the Student Union Plaza in honor of those who are battling the disease of ALS. Terry Stephan-Hains, director of the Weigel Health Center, lost her husband in 2010 to this terrible disease. Her sister-in-law lost her battle with ALS last August.
To support those who continue to struggle with this disease, we have come together as a community to raise funds for the ALS-Therapy Development Institute (ALS-TDI). ALS-TDI is one of the leading groups performing research to find the cause and cure for ALS. Please come and cheer on your campus leaders! Ashleigh Sutherland, USG president, will take the challenge for all students and will donate a portion of her check as president. Please come to cheer everyone on and to donate whatever you can to this great cause. See you there!
Checks will be accepted at the event and should be made out to ALS-TDI. You can also donate online at www.als.net or www.teamhains.com.
