AFTD’s Athlete of the Month Ryan W. and his wife Stephanie (pictured above during a family hike in Illinois’ Matthiessen State Park), record their mileage using the Charity Miles app, to raise awareness and funds for AFTD’s mission.

Since downloading the app, Ryan has logged over 675 miles in support of AFTD’s mission! He tracks his morning runs, daily walks, and hikes with his family. Ryan is supporting AFTD’s mission to honor his mother, who is living with FTD.

“I love the Charity Miles app because it allows me to easily combine two activities that I am passionate about – being physically active and raising money for AFTD. Whenever possible, I make sure to keep my phone with me when I have plans to be active. It’s as simple as opening the app to upload my daily activity, and just like that, I’ve made an impact. What an easy way to raise awareness and funds to help fight this disease that has affected my mother and so many others.”

Congratulations to the AFTD-Team for logging 10,000 miles on the app this month and securing a $10,000 donation from Alector! AFTD is grateful for Alector’s generous sponsorship and support of our mission on Charity Miles. These funds will advance AFTD’s mission – bringing help and support to improve quality of life for people affected by FTD and driving research to a cure.
