Crusade [kru seyd] noun  -  any vigorous, aggressive movement for the defense or advancement of an idea or cause.

Announcing the new name for this newly formed 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, honoring the memory of Keri Brown Still, with ALS education and awareness, and finding the cause and cure. We thank ALS Association – Catfish Chapter for allowing us to be under their tax ”umbrella” since June, 2008, in order to raise funds for our efforts. Through the Conference on ALS, we are making a difference!

The new 2010 NC CONFERENCE on ALS by Keri’s Crusade for ALS will be presented in conjunction with Carolinas Medical Center ALS Clinic of Charlotte, NC, (as it stands right now) November 10, 2010!  Location announced soon.
