The A.L.S. Family Charitable Foundation was started in 2001 by Donna Jordan and Mary Ann (Sciaba) Singersen and is dedicated to the loving memory of Clifford Jordan, Jr. and Edward J. Sciaba, Sr., in hopes of creating a brighter future for those living with A.L.S. in New England. The Foundation honors all of the courageous individuals and families touched by this disease.The impact of these two great men had such a profound effect on their families that they have left behind not only a legacy of love but of boundless hope!
February, 2011 marks the 10th anniversary of the Foundation. The year ahead will be a time to reflect on all the special people who have crossed our paths and impacted our lives in so many ways. We're thinking of patients, their families, volunteers, caregivers, researchers, donors and sponsors.
Throughout the year, we will honor the memory of love ones lost, and celebrate the dedication of those who help us daily in our mission to provide relief to patients and families with the ultimate hope of someday soon eradicating this dreadful disease.
