With this foundation, I want to fight ALS so that others will be spared this horrid disease.

For me, our foundation means a great deal. We want to draw attention to ALS and contribute to research to find a cure, as well as be a support for families going through the life crisis that ALS entails.

Our goal is to find a cure for this terrible disease for everyone affected and for their families to receive support and help. Healthcare needs to create a system for those affected, regardless of age, geography or needs.

Being able to help in the work of supporting research and those affected by ALS feels important. I am extremely grateful and honored to be involved in this important work.

It feels important and valuable to contribute to something that makes a difference.

I feel tremendous honor and responsibility to be able to contribute to the Foundation's work.

I want to support and contribute to the foundation because it feels important to make a contribution.

I want to contribute to creating better conditions and find a cure for ALS.

It is absolutely a matter of course for me to help fight ALS.

Börje Salming was actively taking part in the creation of this foundation. That is why I feel such a big honor to have the privilege to fight ALS in the name of Börje.
