The Funds raised will be used for the Tony Proudfoot Post-Doctoral Fellowships in ALS Research at the Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital (The Neuro) and the McGill University Health Centre. The hope and belief is that  research will lead to new therapies and renewed hope for the thousands of Canadians affected by this devastating degenerative disease.

In addition to supporting research, Tony's Fund helps improve the living conditions for people living with ALS and provides support for their family members through programs across the province.
