THE ALS ASSOCIATION WISCONSIN CHAPTER EVENTS

WALK TO DEFEAT ALS®

While there's no shortage of charity walk/run events out there, the sense of community and support at ours is absolutely amazing. There's no better way to describe it than a "2.1k Love Fest" (Or 5k Love Fest for the Milwaukee run). Maybe that's because the money that's raised at these events stays right here in Wisconsin, providing equipment and services to help local ALS patients and their families cope with the disease.
Milwaukee Walk to Defeat ALS is October 5, 2025. Madison Walk to Defeat ALS is October 19, 2025.

LOU GEHRIG'S DAY

A natural tie-in to Lou Gehrig's Disease, it's a baseball tailgate party held in the parking lot of Miller Park before a Milwaukee Brewers game and includes a free concert, food and drinks, and a ticket to the game. Inside the stadium, we make our presence known by wearing matching ALS t-shirts and having an ALS patient or family member throw the ceremonial first pitch.
