The event coordinator is Connor Cohan. Connor’s cousin, Ryan Farnsworth, was diagnosed with ALS in 2015 at the young age or 29. Following a hard-fought battle with ALS Ryan passed from this horrible disease February 19, 2019 at the age of 32. Connor and his family are dedicated to finding treatments and cures for ALS.
(Pictured below: Connor with his cousin Ryan in 2017, two years before his passing)
Our ultimate goal is to aid in the research and find a cure for ALS. Eat To Defeat ALS is a fun filled event but also is to raise money to combat this disease.
- ALS stands for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects the nerve cells
