2024 Chicago Marathon

Teresa Uemura

I have joined Team Race for ALS and will participate in the 2023 Bank of America Chicago Marathon of behalf of the Les Turner ALS Foundation. I believe in the work of the Les Turner ALS Foundation, I believe in providing the best possible care to Chicagoland area ALS patients and their families and I believe that the money we raise together will lead to finding a cure for ALS. Join me as we race towards more than a finish line, we race towards a CURE!

 

 The money we raise together goes toward helping people currently living with ALS and their families through the Foundation’s Home and Community Service and grant programs. It also supports the Les Turner ALS Research and Patient Center at Northwestern Medicine where PALS are seen by a multi-disciplinary clinical staff at the Lois Insolia ALS Clinic, ensuring no part of their disease goes unseen and untreated. The Center also supports full functioning research laboratories, each providing hope of a future without ALS.
