Stephen's Bday Fundraiser for ALS & Scleroderma

Donation protected

Thank you for clicking!

This passed year in quarantine has shaped me in unexpected ways and revealed what is truly important ... but it also took away two people I loved so much: my Godfather and uncle, Dave Healey, and my close friend and drag icon, Chi Chi Devayne/Zavion Davenport.

So for my birthday on January 18th, in lieu of gifts, I'm raising funds for two charities that support other folx that experience the same struggles that Chi Chi and my uncle did... The Scleroderma Foundation in memory of Chi Chi Devayne/Zavion Davenport and ALS Canada in memory of my uncle Dave Healey.

This year has been hard on everyone so if you don't have the $ to spare right now DO NOT WORRY. I love you and am grateful to have you in my life. 

Thanks for sharing and donating <3

Happy new year xoxox

Stephen

ABOUT ALS CANDA:

Founded in 1977, the ALS Society of Canada (ALS Canada) works with the ALS community to improve the lives of people affected by ALS through support, advocacy and investment in research for a future without ALS. We are a registered charity that receives no government funding – all of our services and research are funded through the generosity of our donors.

Through the ALS Canada Research Program, we fund peer-reviewed research grants, foster collaboration and build capacity within Canada’s ALS research community, and participate in new areas of research where we are well-positioned to have an impact.

Within Ontario, ALS Canada has a role similar to that of the provincial ALS societies providing services and support to help meet the needs of people living with ALS.

Through advocacy federally and provincially within Ontario, ALS Canada gives voice to the collective experience of people living with ALS to help drive program and system changes for the ALS community.
