A diagnosis changes everything. It shifts time, warps reality, and steals the foundation beneath your feet. What once felt steady suddenly isn’t, and the world that existed before those three letters—ALS—becomes something distant, something unreachable.
For families walking this path, the questions never end. How do we manage this? How do we afford this? How do we keep going when everything feels like it’s slipping away? The truth is that ALS doesn’t just affect the person diagnosed. It touches every person around them—spouses, children, parents, friends. It pulls at the seams of their lives, demanding sacrifices no one should have to make.
Let Hope Grow was created for those people—not for research, not for tomorrow, but for today—for the moments unfolding right now, for the families who need support at this very moment. Because ALS doesn’t wait, and neither should the help they deserve.
A Place to Turn When There Is Nowhere Else
That’s why Let Hope Grow is expanding its reach, offering real, tangible support through its ALS Assistance Programs. When bills pile up, and homes feel more like obstacles than places of rest, we step in. The newly launched ALS Assistance Programs are built to lighten the weight ALS families carry—financially, physically, and emotionally.
Imagine needing a wheelchair ramp just to go outside and feel the air on your face but being unable to afford it. Picture falling behind on rent because medical expenses left nothing behind. Think of a family desperately needing a communication device for their loved one but finding the cost too great. These aren’t just hypotheticals. These are realities lived every single day by those battling ALS.
Let Hope Grow is ensuring they are not alone.
Building a Bridge to Support ALS Families
Essential medical equipment is now within reach through the new ALS Equipment Assistance Program. No one should have to go without the tools they need to maintain dignity and independence. This program connects families to life-changing resources, including wheelchairs, communication devices, hospital beds, and adaptive tools.
For those fearing losing their homes, the ALS Housing Assistance Program offers financial relief for rent and mortgages. ALS is already a thief—it takes movement, speech, and time. It should never take the security of home. This program exists to ensure that families have the support to stay where they belong without the added stress of housing insecurity.
Then there are the homes that ALS makes unlivable—not because they aren’t filled with love, but because they weren’t built with this reality in mind. Tight hallways that can’t fit a wheelchair. Bathrooms that aren’t safe for someone with limited mobility. Front steps stand like a wall between a person and the outside world. The ALS Home Modifications Program provides the financial assistance needed to make these changes. Ramps, widened doorways, stair lifts—modifications that mean freedom, that means safety, that means a person can live in their home rather than feel trapped by it.
More Than Assistance—A Community
Let Hope Grow has never been just an organization. It’s a promise, a commitment to the people fighting this disease, their families, and the caregivers who give every ounce of themselves in a battle they never asked for. These programs are not just about financial relief or equipment loans. They are about dignity. They are about dignity, support, and making sure that ALS families don’t just survive—they live.
