FA Project Blog

By Maria Currier

In 1998, my husband was diagnosed with Friedreich’s Ataxia, a progressive life altering disease that causes damage to the nervous system. Ever since then, we’ve been searching long and hard for ways to fight this terrible disease. We reached out to friends and family and through our combined efforts we founded The FA Project, Inc. The FA Project is a 501(C)(3) Charitable Organization committed to raising awareness and helping those afflicted with Friedreich’s Ataxia. During the past four years our all-volunteer organization has raised over $75,000! These funds have been distributed directly to the FA community and supported those affected in a variety of ways.

You can help us in many ways. One is through a donation.
Your donation will further our goals of providing financial support for individuals and their families by obtaining travel grants to visit specialists, defraying the costs of medical expenses, and providing wheelchairs and other adaptive equipment. If you’d like to donate, you can send a check made payable to The FA Project Inc. or donate online at www.THEFAPROJECT.org/donate.html. All donations are tax deductible (TIN: 26-4373585), and your generosity will play a role in the efforts to help those afflicted with Friedreich’s Ataxia live the best life possible.

If you’d like to sponsor our upcoming Annual Striking Courage Bowlathon on April 6, 2013 at Candlewood Lanes in North Reading, you can send a check made payable to The FA Project Inc. or sponsor online at www.THEFAPROJECT.org/sponsor.html. All sponsorships are also tax deductible (TIN: 26-4373585).
