<div>Melissa Capp was diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (more commonly known as ALS or Lou Gehrig’s disease) in November of 2023.  ALS is a neurological disorder that affects motor neurons. Motor neurons are the nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord that control voluntary muscle movement and breathing. Eventually, the brain loses its ability to start and control voluntary movements such as walking, talking, chewing and other functions, as well as breathing. ALS is progressive, meaning symptoms get worse over time. There's currently no known treatment that stops or reverses the progression of ALS. Melissa’s ALS has advanced to a point where she had to purchase a motorized wheelchair in order to leave her home.  A wheelchair accessible van is now necessary so that Melissa is able to travel to doctor’s appointments and other outings.  Given that she is no longer able to work, and because of the additional expenses living with ALS has cost, Melissa’s family is asking for help in purchasing a van for her. Because ALS is a terminal disease, there will come a time when the van is no longer necessary.  At that time, the proceeds from the sale of the van will be donated to the ALS Foundation.  Your help in reaching the monetary goal of $50,000.00 would be greatly appreciated by Melissa, her family, and other families who will benefit from your generosity.
