Coast 2 Coast 4 ALS

Changing the Future of ALS Together. Your gift fuels our 4,000-mile ride - and the fight for a cure. Every 90 minutes, someone in the United States is diagnosed with ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis)  — a progressive and fatal disease that slowly robs people of their ability to move, speak, and breathe. There is currently no cure. Coast to Coast 4 ALS was created to change that. This extraordinary effort brings together riders, families, researchers, and supporters for a 4,000-mile cycling journey across 12 states  to raise awareness and critical funding for ALS research and patient support. Inspired by the courage of Laura Olds , and the resilience of the ALS community, this ride turns every mile into momentum for change. Your donation helps: • Fund groundbreaking ALS research  through the Packard Center for ALS Research at Johns Hopkins • Support care and independence programs  for people living with ALS through Team Gleason • Expand awareness so more families receive the support they need ALS moves quickly. The need for research, care, and hope is urgent. Every dollar moves us closer to treatments, better care, and ultimately — a cure. Together, we are turning miles into impact to end ALS. Be part of the journey. Donate today and help us ride toward a cure.

Help Power Rex Through the Final 100 Miles After more than 3,700 miles across America , Rex Houlihan is entering the final stretch of his Coast 2 Coast 4 ALS journey. Together, we've raised more than $498,000 for ALS research and care, but we're not finished yet. As Rex rides the final 100 miles from Annapolis, Maryland, to the Atlantic Ocean in Dewey Beach, Delaware , we're inviting 100 supporters to sponsor one of those final miles with a $100 donation (or more). Each mile represents more than a distance on a map. It represents every person living with ALS. Every family navigating this disease. Every researcher searching for a cure. Every supporter who has carried this mission forward. Leave Your Mark on the Final 100 Miles When you sponsor a mile, please share the following: Your name Who you're honoring or remembering (optional) A short message of encouragement, hope, or remembrance We'll proudly display every sponsor and message during our Coast 2 Coast 4 ALS Finale Celebration on August 14 in Dewey Beach , creating a powerful tribute to the people who helped carry this ride to the finish line. Whether you're honoring someone you've lost, celebrating someone still fighting, or simply standing beside the ALS community, your message will become part of this unforgettable moment. Together, Let's Finish Strong Our original goal was to raise $500,000 . We're almost there. Now let's do more than reach it. Let's blow past it. Every additional dollar helps fund groundbreaking ALS research and provides critical support for individuals and families living with this devastating disease. Thank you for believing in this mission, for cheering Rex on every mile of the way, and for helping us finish this journey stronger than we ever imagined. Sponsor a mile. Share your story. Be part of the final 100 miles. Because together, we're not just crossing the finish line...we're moving closer to a cure. 💙

    I knew my sister, Laura, was strong and had a huge heart, but now I know she is the strongest kindest person I know. She also has an incredible group of friends and a warm family. Love to you all.
