Project Main Street raising funds for ALS patient care
Learn more about the ALS organization Project Main St., led by a group of tight-knit friends from Roosevelt Island committed to honoring the legacy of their friend Tim Sheehy.
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a fast-progressing and ultimately fatal neurological condition. It affects the nerve cells (neurons) that control voluntary muscle movements, such as walking, speaking, and breathing. While there is currently no cure, about 10% of people diagnosed with ALS live 10 years or longer after the onset of symptoms.
Project Main Street provides support for individuals afflicted with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and their families by reducing the financial burden associated with the disease.
Marquee Sports Network and the Chicago Cubs have teamed up to host the fifth annual Lou Gehrig Day Auction benefiting Project Main Street and the fight to end ALS.
Bid on once-in-a-lifetime experiences and memorabilia, including the opportunity to call play-by-play on Marquee, shadow Marquee on-air talent, score a VIP studio & broadcast booth tour, and more!
🗓️ Auction ends Sunday, June 22 at 8 PM CT!
We’re highlighting the stories of Cubs fans impacted by ALS to help raise awareness and support their fight.
