Young ProfessionALS Group

Our Young ProfessionALS Group (YPG) is a great way to meet other Chicagoland young professionals with a common interest in finding a cure for ALS. Many of our members have a personal connection to ALS, but we welcome anyone interested in making a difference.

Through the Les Turner ALS Foundation, we help fund care for people living with ALS support groups for everyone affected by the disease, and research at Northwestern Medicine.

Join for:

Monthly Meetings

Spring: NCAA March Madness Bracket Challenge

Summer: Cruisin’ for a Cure (new for 2025!)

Fall: All in for ALS Casino Night

Year Round:  Special events like golf outings, Chicago Cubs and White Sox games for Lou Gehrig Day, running events, and more!

To get involved, contact Ryan McGarvey at YPG@lesturnerals.org.
