Earlier today one of our cheerleaders challenged the MAYA board to do the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge! We all accepted the challenge at tonights practice in font of all our parents, football players and cheerleaders! The ice bucket challenge was started by the ALS Association to help bring awareness to the disease and to raise money to support the ongoing research. Below is some information on ALS and the website you can go to and donate. We hope that all our Mustang families take some time to educate themselves on the topic and help us raise awareness and money for the research that’s needing to be done in order to hopefully find a cure!!! *****The MAYA Board nominates the Manor High School Football Coaches, The Manor High School Cheer coach, All MAYA Mustangs Head Coaches and The Manor Falcons!!!! Lets all bring awareness and raise money to help patients that are battling ALS! Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), sometimes called Lou Gehrigs disease, is a rapidly progressive, invariably fatal neurological disease that attacks the nerve cells (neurons) responsible for controlling voluntary muscles (muscle action we are able to control, such as those in the arms, legs, and face). More than 12,000 people in the U.S. have a definite diagnosis of ALS.
