About us
Team Gleason, established by former NFL player Steve Gleason in 2011, is committed to empowering individuals with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) to lead purposeful lives. Despite facing his own ALS diagnosis, Steve exemplified resilience and determination, founding Team Gleason to enhance the lives of those impacted by this disease. At Team Gleason, our vision extends beyond survival; we aspire to create a world where individuals living with ALS have the resources and opportunities to thrive, fostering productivity, purpose, and meaning in their lives. Through the implementation of cutting-edge technologies, provision of essential equipment, and delivery of crucial care services, we strive to uplift the ALS community, nurturing a sense of dignity and purpose in every individual we serve. Since its inception, Team Gleason has emerged as a leading non-profit provider of equipment and technology for individuals with ALS nationwide. Our mission is clear: to directly support the ALS community by ensuring access to the tools and resources necessary for navigating life with ALS. Our mission is to improve life for people living with ALS and those who care for them by delivering innovative technology and equipment, as well as providing and empowering an improved life experience. "Until there is a cure, there is Team Gleason." We recognize and address the critical service gap in ALS care by providing essential support to patients and caregivers alike. With over $40 million invested in adventure, technology, equipment, and care services, we remain steadfast in our commitment to making a tangible difference in the lives of those affected by ALS.

Incredible achievement from Noah Cooper, completing Ironman Coeur d'Alene 70.3! Team Gleason is honored by your commitment to our mission to empower those living with ALS and grateful to have you carry our flag. Awesome Ain't Easy! #teamgleason #als #nowhiteflags
I finished Ironman Coeur d'Alene 70.3 as a fundraiser to help the Team Gleason Foundation improve the lives of ALS patients like my friend Steve Gleason. I was honored to carry Team Gleason's No White Flags logo across the finish line after a 500 meter swim (shortened from 1.2 miles for safety due to some pretty big wind-driven waves on the lake), 56 mile bike and 13.1 mile run. While dealing with horrible leg cramps throughout the run, I was able to do it with a smile on my face thinking of Steve's words in his new book, A Life Impossible, about appreciating what you have in the moment--the chance to race for an incredible cause--and not how painfully slow my mile splits were. As Steve would say--my presence in the race was enough and I was so grateful to be in that moment. Thank you, Steve, for inspiring me through another Ironman race. #NoWhiteFlags #AwesomeAintEasy Blair Casey Rian Emmerson Clare Durrett
