This month, President Trump released the outline for his Fiscal Year 2018 (FY18) budget and it includes severe cuts to scientific research with cuts to the National Institutes of Health and other programs. Congress will make the final judgments on appropriations, including funding for ALS Research. We can’t sit idle and hope for the best. Here are ways you can get involved NOW to make sure we continue to advance the mission of ALS research –
1 Donate directly to fund ALS research at www.alsphiladelphia.org <https://www.alsphiladelphia.org/page.redir?target=http%3a%2f%2fwww.alsphiladelphia.org&srcid=46900&srctid=1&erid=13985466&trid=9908c832-aa52-4209-a428-726e40269d82>. Every dollar makes an impact.
