The ALS Society of Quebec is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to improving the lives of people living with ALS and their family.
Let’s embody hope together.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease and Charcot’s disease, is a fatal and incurable neurodegenerative condition that attacks motor neurons and leads to a gradual loss of mobility. There is still no cure, but some treatments can slow its progression, and research is advancing rapidly. Currently, 80% of individuals with ALS die within 2 to 5 years of diagnosis.
Founded in 1983, the ALS Society of Quebec is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the well-being of the ALS community in Quebec.
Your donations directly contribute to:
- Supporting individuals with ALS and their loved ones
- Empowering them to improve their quality of life
- Advocating for their rights
- Raising public awareness
- Funding promising research projects
Your support helps over 7,000 individuals with ALS, their family members, bereaved loved ones, and healthcare professionals registered with ALS Quebec, who receive information, services, and support at every stage of the disease.
Thanks to your donations, we support research through partnerships such as the National Research Program and our own ALS Quebec Research Fund. This allows us to support incredible local talents in ALS research, both in laboratories and clinical settings.
Together, we can make a real difference so that everyone affected by ALS can access the support, resources, and opportunities needed to live life to the fullest. Together, we can defeat ALS.
