The ALS & MS 2024 Walk for Living will be held at the Leonard Florence Center for Living. Every single dollar raised goes directly back to patient care and programs for ALS and MS residents.

Following the dog-friendly walk, there will be a barbecue hosted by Chili’s, face painting, live dance performances, a petting zoo and more. The donation fee includes a Walk for Living T-shirt, as well as all food and activities.

WCVB Channel 5 news anchor Maria Stephanos, this year’s Walk Ambassador, will emcee the event. On a recent visit to the Leonard Florence Center for Living, Maria reflected on the word “living” in the center’s name. “That word means everything to the residents who call the center home,” explains Stephanos. “Walking into the Leonard Florence Center and you immediately see and feel that this is a very special place.”

This year’s Walk for Living will honor Jeffrey Siegal, president & CEO of Geriatric Medical & Surgical Supply and its employees. Headquartered in Woburn, the company is the largest LTC-focused distributor in New England and the fourth-largest nationwide. With its mission to improve long-term care, Jeff and the Geriatric Medical family have close ties with Chelsea Jewish Lifecare.

The ALS & MS Walk for Living enables residents as well as other attendees to participate in wheelchairs, ventilators or by foot. The 2-mile walk, now in its 16th year, has become a much-anticipated event in the local community.
