5430 Charities

5430 Charities The 5430 Boulder Triathlon Series has designated the ALS Therapy Development Institute (ALS TDI) as our official charity. ALS TDI has a clear mission of finding effective treatments for persons with ALS. The organization and its work can be reviewed by clicking here. Our commitment to ALS was greatly deepened when one of our family of racers – John Stermer – was diagnosed with ALS in September, 2004. Additionally, we became friends with Jon Blais who was the first person with ALS to complete the Hawaii Ironman. Both men have succumbed to the disease, but their spirits will always be with us. Donations can be made as you complete registration. Processing fees will not be added to your specified amount (your event receipt can be used for your tax purposes). Please help us out on this incredibly worthy mission.
