“I’m Eric. An actor, a father and now a person living with ALS,” he says in the video for the charity I AM ALS.
He continues, “For over a century, ALS has been incurable, and we’re done accepting the status quo. We need the fastest path to a cure and that’s why I partnered with I AM ALS on the Push for Progress. Our goal? A billion dollars over the next three years.”
“Together, we’ll renew the landmark law ACT for ALS, get promising treatments to thousands of patients like me. And finally, finally push towards ending this disease,” he said. “There’s so much to learn. More to do and we have to do it now. Visit the link below to donate. Get involved and be a part of pushing for progress.”
Eric recently made a red carpet appearance and debuted his new romantic relationship.
