Victor Keane Team Race for ALS

Donate Now

Hello everyone,

As a participant in the 2022 Bank of America Chicago Marathon, I have decided to join the Team Race for ALS to help raise funds for the Les Turner ALS Foundation. 

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, also known as ALS, or Lou Gehrig's disease, is a neurological disorder. It is a disease that attacks the nerve cells which control a person's voluntary movement. As it progresses, it gradually inhibits a person's physical mobility, and makes them dependent on care from others.

The Les Turner ALS Foundation, was established in 1977. The Foundation was created to help provide care for those affected by the disease, answer their questions, and support them and their loved ones through every step of their journey.

I have seen firsthand the positive impact Les Turner can bring to those battling ALS. In March of 2012, my father Ray Keane was diagnosed. From the moment of his diagnosis, Les Turner provided the necessary support to help care for my father. Even after his passing in May of 2014, Les Turner offered guidance and grief counseling to my family, as we navigated through one of the most difficult times in our life. 

I have joined this team to honor my father and his legacy. Dad participated in eleven Chicago Marathons over his lifetime. I believe this race is symbolic of the traits and characteristics that my dad instilled in me. Life is a marathon, and while you may not know the course the path that you are running, or what the outcome will be, the best thing to do is to keep on and always live strong. 

Please consider donating and helping families like mine, receive the proper care and support they need. Together we can make an impact to the ALS community and get one step closer to finding a cure.
