Voices of Hope to benefit the ALS Hope Foundation

On Sunday November 22, 2009, the ALS Hope Foundation will be holding its third annual “Voices of Hope” at the Waterford Room in the Radisson Hotel in Valley Forge, Pa. Following a lunch buffet we will present a “parlour” opera. A concert will follow that includes not only broadway and classical pieces but the premiere of an original composition based on folk songs of the South, arranged by Stephen Senderoff who is living with ALS. The Opera and concert will be performed by the Sunderman Conservatory under the direction of Dr. Kathleen Sasnett. Tickets to the luncheon and performance are $60. All proceeds from this event will go directly to the ALS Hope Foundation.

ALS can target anyone at any time, and once diagnosed, the typical patient lives only two to five years. The ALS Hope Foundation is dedicated to finding a cure for Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis through innovative and collaborative research while supporting excellence in care through the MDA/ALS Center of Hope at Drexel University College of Medicine.
