The sole purpose of the ALS Finding a Cure® Foundation is funding research to find a cure.

In the summer of 2014, The ALS Association received a tremendous response to the "Ice Bucket Challenge." With your help we would like to keep the momentum going by working with The ALS Association® (ALSA) and our many other amazing affiliates. Our goal is to translate funding into cutting-edge development tools, provide an open platform for neurological research material, understand disease heterogeneity, and promote early detection for those affected by ALS.

GE, one of our most important collaborators, has developed breakthrough technology to better understand the brain. Their imaging scanner and software have allowed our research to gain neurological information through what GE calls "Mapping the Mind."
