What is your primary product or service?
provide financial assistance to individuals diagnosed with ALS
How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
My wife passed away from ALS in November 2012. Costs associated with this disease are huge and most people do not have the resources to properly care for their loved ones. The foundation was started as a memorial to my wife Trish and a way to help others dealing with this disease.
How do you differentiate yourself from other businesses in your category and area?
Expenses are paid outside the foundation to insure every dollar donated goes to assist ALS patients. Our funds go directly to providing payment for prescriptions, care giving services etc.
How many locations do you have and do you have plans to expand?
We are located in and serve the greater Orange County area - expansion to other areas is dependent upon donations received to assist patients.
