Every 90 minutes, someone in the United States is diagnosed with ALS—also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease. It’s a progressive neurodegenerative disease that robs individuals of their strength and independence, while loved ones watch helplessly. For many, it’s more than a statistic—it’s personal. For Leticia, it’s about her dear friend Chris Mavo and countless others whose lives have been forever changed by ALS.
That’s why Leticia is stepping up—literally. She’s participating in the ALS Network’s Walk & Roll to Defeat ALS on Saturday, October 18, 2025. This powerful event brings communities together to raise awareness, show support, and fund crucial research and care for those affected.
By joining this walk, Leticia hopes to shine a light on the urgent need for continued support and medical breakthroughs. While the event lasts just a day, the impact can last a lifetime.
Leticia’s involvement goes beyond the walk itself—she is passionate about advocacy, compassion, and connection. By sharing her personal connection to ALS, she reminds us that behind every diagnosis is a story, a family, and a network of people doing their best to stay strong. Her journey with Chris is one of resilience and hope, and she is determined to turn that hope into action through this fundraising effort.
The Walk & Roll to Defeat ALS isn’t just about raising money—it’s about showing those affected that they’re not alone. The energy, encouragement, and unity felt during this event are powerful reminders of what’s possible when communities come together. Leticia invites you to be part of this movement—not only by donating, but by spreading the word and standing in solidarity with all those touched by ALS.
