14th Annual Walk and Roll to cure ALS

Oct 04, 2026

Hundreds of people turned out in Honolulu to raise money for families living with ALS, a hopeful show of support for a community facing a disease with no cure.

  • The 14th annual Walk and Roll to Cure ALS drew hundreds to Kapiolani Park.
  • ALS, also called Lou Gehrig's disease, attacks the nervous system and takes away the ability to walk, talk, swallow, and breathe.
  • Care can cost a family up to $250,000 a year, so money raised goes toward free services, medical equipment, and support groups.
  • More than 35,000 people across the country have ALS, including more than 100 families being helped in Hawaii.

Outlook: Funds raised will keep covering care costs for Hawaii families while researchers still search for a cure.
