The Kelowna Walk for ALS saw 210 people attend the fundraising event to end amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
The volunteer led fundraiser took place at Waterfront Park – Island Stage for people of all ages.
Participants had the opportunity to take part in a 50/50 draw, silent auction, a BBQ and games for kids.
“We raised several thousand dollars on the Silent Auction and CarBBQ. All the funds raised goes directly to patient care in our province,” said a spokesperson for ALS.
All proceeds go towards ALS to reach the fundraising goal of $32,000.
The Walk to End ALS is the largest volunteer-led fundraiser for ALS Societies across Canada.
