Compassionate Care ALS Benefit

Dilly Walsh, who is an ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease) patient, resurrected the spirit of the 70s free-for-all parties that he used to throw, by hosting an all-out bash- only this time he had a lot of help from his many influential friends. His many supporters donated fantastic "Possible Dreams" type auction items such as tix to the MTV Music Awards, 4th row homeplate Yankees tickets, a golf fantasy trip, valuable local artwork and many more. All proceeds from the party (which included over 150 guests) aid the first ever CCALS group, founded by Ron Hoffman, who is the Executive Director of the group. Dilly's hope is that his and Hoffman's efforts will help jumpstart a nationwide network of charitable support groups for ALS. Watch Dilly and Hoffman's interview on the MorningNoon&Night Show.
