Knockout ALD is a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Your generous gift is tax-deductible and will help us fund research projects that are working to find better treatments and a cure for ALD. Adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) is a rare, progressive X-linked genetic disease that most severely affects boys. Without early diagnosis and treatment, boys with cerebral ALD eventually lose all neurological functions. Please click the "About Us" tab above to learn about our cause, our Run for ALD, our partners, and other ways to help.

You can make a donation through the PayPal button (fees are taken out from your donation), or mail a check directly to Knockout ALD, 1551 Timberlake Manor Parkway, Chesterfield, MO 63017.

Together, we can make a difference and help Cure the Boys

Sponsors are a large part of our success.. please consider sponsoring our event. This year we have several levels of sponsorship. You can find sponsorship forms below. We hope to add to our record-breaking total of last year's Run for ALD of $48,500.

Knockout ALD's total giving to the University of Minnesota's Leukodystrophy Center for ALD Research is now $128,500. The U of M recently added our Knockout ALD tile to their donor wall in the hospital lobby! We can't wait to see how much more we can raise to help initiate and push more ALD research forward in the next year!
