Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is more commonly known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease. Lou Gehrig was not only a legendary New York Yankee, he was also a Brother in the Bond of Phi Delta Theta.

To honor Brother Gehrig’s memory and to help fight this horrible disease and provide resources to those currently affected by it, the Phi Delta Theta Washington, DC Alumni Club formed a team to participate in the annual “Walk to Defeat ALS” consisting of undergraduates, alumni and other supporters.

On Saturday, October 14, 2017, members of our team walked three miles around the Washington Monument Grounds in Washington, DC. Walkers included Phi Delt alumni and members of the DC Alpha Colony of Phi Delta Theta located at George Washington University.

Whether or not you were able to walk with us, please consider joining our fight. Let’s do it for Brother Lou!
