Music. Sports. Storytelling. One Mission.

BEAT ALS is a music- and community-driven initiative of the 723 Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, founded by country artist Matt Stillwell. Its mission is to provide mobility, create hope through experiences, tell ALS warriors’ stories, and support research in the fight for a cure.

Inspired by the legacy of Coach Keith LeClair, BEAT ALS brings together the sports, music, and storytelling communities to create meaningful impact for people and families facing ALS.

Why It Matters To Matt

ALS has impacted Matt’s life through coaches, friends, teammates, and families who have faced the disease with courage and strength.

BEAT ALS was created to honor those legacies and turn music, relationships, and community into action.
