ABOUT THE PATRICK O'BRIEN FOUNDATION

The Patrick O'Brien Foundation is a 501(C)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting awareness of a currently incurable illness, Amyotropic Lateral Sclerosis (known also as ALS or Lou Gehrig's disease). It is established in honor of Patrick Sean O'Brien — an artist diagnosed with ALS at the uncommonly early age of 30. Support is provided to those diagnosed with a neuro-muscular illness for life's work projects that provide a unique insight into the experience, mind, and heart of living with their disease.

In addition, the POB Foundation supports ALS research on management, treatment, and cure of the disease.
